CVE-2022-36944

CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H

Certain versions of Fedora from Fedoraproject contain the following vulnerability:

Scala 2.13.x before 2.13.9 has a Java deserialization chain in its JAR file. On its own, it cannot be exploited. There is only a risk in conjunction with Java object deserialization within an application. In such situations, it allows attackers to erase contents of arbitrary files, make network connections, or possibly run arbitrary code (specifically, Function0 functions) via a gadget chain.

CVE-2022-36944 has been assigned by [email protected] to track the vulnerability - currently rated as CRITICAL severity.

CVSS3 Score: 9.8 - CRITICAL
