How to Fix CVE-2024-8008
To remediate this vulnerability, upgrade all affected Org.wso2.carbon.identity.user.store.configuration.ui dependencies to a patched release. Both direct and transitive dependencies should be checked, as frameworks or security libraries may pull in vulnerable versions transitively.
<dependency>
<groupId>org.wso2.carbon.identity.framework</groupId>
<artifactId>org.wso2.carbon.identity.user.store.configuration.ui</artifactId>
<version>7.5.12</version>
</dependency>Run the following command in your project directory to verify that all resolved dependencies use the patched release:
mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=org.wso2.carbon.identity.frameworkHow to Check if You Are Affected
To determine whether your Java application is affected by CVE-2024-8008, inspect your build dependencies using the Maven Dependency Plugin:
mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=org.wso2.carbon.identity.frameworkAnalyze the terminal output to locate any version of Org.wso2.carbon.identity.user.store.configuration.ui in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 7.5.12), your application is affected.
Note: The mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=org.wso2.carbon.identity.framework 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
