Verify Direct and Transitive Dependencies

Run the following command in your project directory to verify that all resolved dependencies use the patched release: 

mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=org.infinispan

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your Java application is affected by CVE-2023-5384, inspect your build dependencies using the Maven Dependency Plugin:

mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=org.infinispan

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Infinispan core in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 15.0.0.Dev07), your application is affected.

Note: The mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=org.infinispan command inspects the resolved dependency graph declared in your project's POM files; it does not perform automated security scanning or inspect runtime dynamic classpaths. Always verify runtime container classpaths and shaded JARs.

Technical Details

Vulnerability Mechanism & Technical Analysis

This vulnerability is classified under CWE-312: Cleartext Storage of Sensitive Information, where the product stores sensitive information in cleartext within a resource that might be accessible to another control sphere. In Infinispan core, software state validation or input boundaries are circumvented during processing. Review the official source advisory statement below for specific affected components, classes, and reproduction details.

Source Advisory Statement

A flaw was found in Infinispan. When serializing the configuration for a cache to XML/JSON/YAML, which contains credentials (JDBC store with connection pooling, remote store), the credentials are returned in clear text as part of the configuration.
