CVE-2024-23683
Artemis Java Test Sandbox versions less than 1.7.6 are vulnerable to a sandbox escape when an attacker crafts a special subclass of InvocationTargetException. An attacker can abuse this issue to execute arbitrary Java when a victim executes the supposedly sandboxed code.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2024-23683 affects Artemis Java Test Sandbox versions less than 1.7.6. The vulnerability arises from improper sandbox enforcement when handling a specially crafted subclass of InvocationTargetException. An attacker with low privileges and requiring user interaction can exploit this to escape the sandbox and execute arbitrary Java code, compromising the sandbox's security guarantees. The CVSS 3.1 vector indicates local attack vector with low complexity, requiring privileges and user interaction, but resulting in complete confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation allows an attacker to bypass the sandbox restrictions and execute arbitrary Java code with the privileges of the sandboxed process. This can lead to full compromise of the affected system's confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
Mitigation Recommendations
A fixed version 1.7.6 or later is implied but not explicitly stated; however, the affected versions are all versions less than 1.7.6. Users should upgrade to version 1.7.6 or later once available. Patch status is not yet confirmed from vendor advisory; therefore, check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance.
