CVE-2016-6793: Apache Wicket deserialization vulnerability Severity: Low
Vendor: The Apache Software Foundation Versions Affected: Apache Wicket 6.x and 1.5.x Description: Depending on the ISerializer set in the Wicket application, it's possible that a Wicket's object deserialized from an untrusted source and utilized by the application to causes the code to enter in an infinite loop. Specifically, Wicket's DiskFileItem class, serialized by Kryo, allows an attacker to hack its serialized form to put a client on an infinite loop if the client attempts to write on the DeferredFileOutputStream attribute. Mitigation: Upgrade to Apache Wicket 6.25.0 or 1.5.17 Credit: This issue was discovered by Jacob Baines, Tenable Network Security and Pedro Santos References: https://wicket.apache.org/news
