CyberRota Analysis
AI-GeneratedThe vulnerability exists in Apache Axis2/Java when the Tribes clustering component is enabled, allowing unauthenticated remote attackers to execute arbitrary code through crafted serialized Java objects sent to the cluster channel. This critical flaw poses a significant risk to systems using this configuration, particularly those with network access to the clustering port. Organizations utilizing Apache Axis2 should prioritize upgrading to version 2.0.1 or later to mitigate this threat, as it removes the vulnerable clustering feature.

Original NVD Description
Deserialization of Untrusted Data (CWE-502) in the Tribes-based clustering component in Apache Software Foundation Apache Axis2/Java through 2.0.0 on Apache Tomcat (only when Tribes clustering is enabled, which is off by default) allows an unauthenticated remote attacker with network access to the clustering port to execute arbitrary code via a crafted serialized Java object delivered to the cluster channel and deserialized in org.apache.axis2.clustering.tribes.Axis2ChannelListener#messageReceived. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 2.0.1, which fixes this issue by removing the clustering feature entirely.
