> Key: CASSANDRA-12317
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-12317
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Components: Compression
>Reporter: Eduardo Aguinaga
>Priority: Major
>
> Overview:
> In May through June of 2016 a static analysis was performed on version 3.0.5
> of the Cassandra source code. The analysis included an automated analysis
> using HP Fortify v4.21 SCA and a manual analysis utilizing SciTools
> Understand v4. The results of that analysis includes the issue below.
> Issue:
> Dynamically loaded code has the potential to be malicious. The application
> uses external input to select which classes or code to use, but it does not
> sufficiently prevent the input from selecting improper classes or code.
> The snippet below shows the issue which ends on line 198 by returning an
> object associated with a class by name.
> CompressionParams.java, lines 190-204:
> {code:java}
