Severity: moderate 

Affected versions:

- Apache Syncope 3.0.0-M0 through 3.0.16
- Apache Syncope 4.0.0-M0 through 4.0.8
- Apache Syncope 4.1.0 through 4.1.3

Description:

Improper isolation or compartmentalization vulnerability in Apache Syncope.

An administrator with adequate entitlements can import arbitrary BPMN process 
definitions via the REST API and then start the process. When a BPMN process 
containing a JUEL expression is imported and started, the expression is 
executed directly on the server, with no sandbox.



This issue affects Apache Syncope: from 3.0.0-M0 through 3.0.16, from 4.0.0-M0 
through 4.0.8, from 4.1.0 through 4.1.3.



Users are recommended to upgrade to version 4.0.9 / 4.1.4, which fix this issue 
by rejecting BPMN definitions including expression attributes.
