Title
Apache Syncope: RCE via Groovy Sandbox bypass
Summary
Improper Isolation or Compartmentalization vulnerability in Apache Syncope.
An administrator with adequate entitlements for Implementations can create a malicious Groovy class containing untrusted code bypassing the Groovy security sandbox.
This issue affects Apache Syncope: from 3.0.0-M0 through 3.0.16, from 4.0.0-M0 through 4.0.6, from 4.1.0-M0 through 4.1.1.
Users are recommended to upgrade to version 4.0.7 / 4.1.2, which fix this issue by tightening the Groovy security sandbox.
