CVE-2023-48089
Java vulnerability analysis and mitigation

Overview

xxl-job-admin version 2.4.0 contains a Remote Code Execution (RCE) vulnerability via the /xxl-job-admin/jobcode/save endpoint. The vulnerability was discovered in November 2023 and affects the job code saving functionality of the application (GitHub Issue, NVD).

Technical details

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient privilege validation in the /xxl-job-admin/jobcode/save endpoint. The application does not properly validate user privileges when modifying code in running cronjobs for job executors. This allows unprivileged users to modify and execute arbitrary code on the job executor. The vulnerability has been assigned a CVSS v3.1 base score of 8.8 (HIGH) with the vector string: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H (NVD).

Impact

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability allows attackers to execute arbitrary code on the job executor system. This can lead to sensitive information disclosure, system compromise, and potential remote shell access to the affected systems (GitHub Issue).

Mitigation and workarounds

Users should avoid using version 2.4.0 of the xxl-job-admin package to mitigate this vulnerability (FortiGuard).
