Summary
Red Hat Security Advisory: xstream security update
Notes
Topic
An update for xstream is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.
Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact of Important. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each vulnerability from the CVE link(s) in the References section.
Details
XStream is a Java XML serialization library to serialize objects to and deserialize object from XML.
Security Fix(es):
* XStream: remote code execution due to insecure XML deserialization when relying on blocklists (CVE-2020-26217)
For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS score, acknowledgments, and other related information, refer to the CVE page(s) listed in the References section.
