🔬 Research Details

[ CVE-2022-45693 ] org.codehaus.jettison:jettison 1.1

Description:
Jettison is a Java library for converting XML to JSON and vice-versa with the help of StAX.

When the JSONObject(Map map) is used to parse or construct a JSON, a user-controlled input can cause a stack exhaustion if it is forwarded to the class for processing. This is because the patch for CVE-2022-45685 in version 1.5.2 is flawed and a simple case can trigger a bad recursion check, causing a denial of service.
The call to JSONArray.put(Map value) can also trigger the vulnerability as it calls the above function.

The attackers must still find an input that propagates either to the JSONObject class as a Map parameter or to JSONArray.put(Map value) function to trigger this vulnerability. The exploit is trivial as it is shown in the PoC -

HashMap<String,Object> map=new HashMap<>();
map.put("t",map);
JSONObject jsonObject=new JSONObject(map);

Remediation:

Development mitigations

Wrap the JSONObject constructor with exception handling -

try {
        JSONObject jsonObject=new JSONObject(map);
}
catch(StackOverflowError e) {
	System.err.println("ERROR: Stack limit reached");
}

[ CVE-2023-1436 ] org.codehaus.jettison:jettison 1.3.3

Description:
An infinite recursion is triggered in Jettison when constructing a JSONArray from a Collection that contains a self-reference in one of its elements. This leads to a StackOverflowError exception being thrown.

[ CVE-2022-40149 ] org.codehaus.jettison:jettison 1.1

Description:
Those using Jettison to parse untrusted XML or JSON data may be vulnerable to Denial of Service attacks (DOS). If the parser is running on user supplied input, an attacker may supply content that causes the parser to crash by stackoverflow. This effect may support a denial of service attack.

[ CVE-2022-40150 ] org.codehaus.jettison:jettison 1.1

Description:
Those using Jettison to parse untrusted XML or JSON data may be vulnerable to Denial of Service attacks (DOS). If the parser is running on user supplied input, an attacker may supply content that causes the parser to crash by Out of memory. This effect may support a denial of service attack.

[ CVE-2022-45685 ] org.codehaus.jettison:jettison 1.1

Description:
Jettison is a Java library for converting XML to JSON and vice-versa with the help of StAX.

When the JSONObject(JSONTokener x) is used to parse or construct a JSON, a user-controlled input can cause a stack buffer overflow if it is forwarded to the class for processing. This is because the function has a limited depth for nested objects, which can be easily exceeded in a malicious JSON. While this vulnerability may not allow for code execution, it can still cause a denial of service.

To exploit this issue, the attacker must find an input that propagates to the JSONObject(JSONTokener x) constructor. The exploit is trivial as a simple JSON file containing a large number of opening brackets will cause the denial of service -

String s="{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{... (Repeat many times)";
new JSONObject(s);

Remediation:

Development mitigations

This issue can be mitigated by checking the nested depth of the input JSON before passing it to the JSONObject class.

public boolean validateJSON(String jsonString) {
    // Set a maximum depth limit (same limit as in the fix)
    final int MAX_DEPTH = 500; 

    // Initialize a stack to track the current depth
    Stack<Integer> stack = new Stack<>();

    // Iterate through the characters in the string
    for (int i = 0; i < jsonString.length(); i++) {
        char c = jsonString.charAt(i);

        // If we encounter an opening curly brace, increment the depth
        if (c == '{') {
            stack.push(1);
        }
        // If we encounter a closing curly brace, decrement the depth
        else if (c == '}') {
            stack.pop();
        }

        // If the depth exceeds the maximum limit, return false
        if (stack.size() > MAX_DEPTH) {
            return false;
        }
    }

    // If we reach the end of the string and the depth is zero, the JSON is valid
    return stack.isEmpty();
}

Development mitigations

Wrap the JSONObject constructor with exception handling -

try {
        JSONObject jsonObject=new JSONObject(map);
}
catch(StackOverflowError e) {
	System.err.println("ERROR: Stack limit reached");
}

[ CVE-2012-5783 ] commons-httpclient:commons-httpclient 3.0.1

Description:
Apache Commons HttpClient 3.x, as used in Amazon Flexible Payments Service (FPS) merchant Java SDK and other products, does not verify that the server hostname matches a domain name in the subject's Common Name (CN) or subjectAltName field of the X.509 certificate, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to spoof SSL servers via an arbitrary valid certificate.
