DescriptionCVE.org

A flaw was found in camel-infinispan. This vulnerability involves unsafe deserialization in the ProtoStream remote aggregation repository. A remote attacker with low privileges could exploit this by sending specially crafted data, leading to arbitrary code execution. This allows the attacker to gain full control over the affected system, impacting its confidentiality, integrity, and availability.

AnalysisAI

Remote code execution in Red Hat Apache Camel Infinispan component allows low-privileged attackers to execute arbitrary code via unsafe deserialization in ProtoStream remote aggregation repository. Exploiting this vulnerability requires network access and low-privilege credentials but grants full system compromise affecting confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The attack complexity is rated high (AC:H), suggesting specific configuration or timing requirements. No active exploitation confirmed at time of analysis (not in CISA KEV), and public exploit code status is unknown.

Technical ContextAI

The vulnerability resides in camel-infinispan, an Apache Camel component that integrates with Red Hat Data Grid (Infinispan) for distributed caching and data grid operations. ProtoStream is Infinispan's serialization library used for encoding/decoding Java objects in remote cache operations. The flaw is rooted in CWE-502 (Deserialization of Untrusted Data), where the remote aggregation repository accepts and deserializes attacker-controlled data without proper validation. When malicious serialized objects are processed, they can instantiate arbitrary classes and execute methods during deserialization, bypassing normal security controls. This affects multiple Red Hat middleware products: Apache Camel 4 for Quarkus 3, Apache Camel for Spring Boot 4, Red Hat Fuse 7, JBoss EAP 8, and JBoss EAP Expansion Pack, all of which embed the vulnerable camel-infinispan component.

RemediationAI

Vendor-released patch status cannot be confirmed from available data; consult Red Hat Product Security advisory at https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2026-6857 for update availability and exact fixed versions. Until patches are applied, implement these compensating controls: Disable or restrict access to ProtoStream remote aggregation repository features in camel-infinispan configurations if not operationally required (eliminates attack surface but may impact distributed aggregation capabilities). Enforce strict authentication and network segmentation to ensure only highly trusted users and systems can access Infinispan remote cache services (reduces PR:L to effective PR:H but requires infrastructure changes). Deploy input validation or allowlisting for serialized objects at network boundaries before they reach deserialization code (complex to implement correctly and may break legitimate remote cache operations). Monitor Infinispan and Camel logs for suspicious remote aggregation requests with unusual serialized payloads (detection-focused, does not prevent exploitation). Isolate affected middleware in network zones with strict egress filtering to limit post-exploitation lateral movement (containment strategy that reduces blast radius but does not prevent initial compromise).
