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.wildfly.security

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your Java application is affected by CVE-2024-12369, inspect your build dependencies using the Maven Dependency Plugin:

mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=org.wildfly.security

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Wildfly elytron in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 2.2.9.Final), your application is affected.

Note: The mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=org.wildfly.security 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-345: Insufficient Verification of Data Authenticity, where the product does not sufficiently verify the origin or authenticity of data, in a way that causes it to accept invalid data. In Wildfly elytron, 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

### Impact A vulnerability was found in OIDC-Client. When using the elytron-oidc-client subsystem with WildFly, authorization code injection attacks can occur, allowing an attacker to inject a stolen authorization code into the attacker's own session with the client with a victim's identity. This is usually done with a Man-in-the-Middle (MitM) or phishing attack. ### Patches [2.2.9.Final](https://github.com/wildfly-security/wildfly-elytron/releases/tag/2.2.9.Final) [2.6.2.Final](https://github.com/wildfly-security/wildfly-elytron/releases/tag/2.6.2.Final) ### Workarounds Currently, no mitigation is currently available for this vulnerability. ### References https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2024-12369 https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2024-12369 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2331178 https://issues.redhat.com/browse/ELY-2887
