CVE-2024-57762
📋 TL;DR
MSFM before version 2025.01.01 contains a deserialization vulnerability in its pom.xml configuration file that could allow remote code execution. This affects systems running vulnerable versions of MSFM with the default configuration. Attackers could exploit this to execute arbitrary code on affected systems.

⚠️ Risk & Real-World Impact
Worst Case
Remote attacker gains full control of the system, leading to data theft, system compromise, and lateral movement within the network.
Likely Case
Remote code execution leading to application compromise, data exfiltration, and potential privilege escalation.
If Mitigated
Limited impact with proper network segmentation and access controls, potentially only affecting the application service.
🎯 Exploit Status
Exploitation requires understanding of Java deserialization attacks and access to modify pom.xml configuration.
🛠️ Fix & Mitigation
✅ Official Fix
Patch Version: 2025.01.01
Vendor Advisory: https://gitee.com/wanglingxiao/mysiteforme/issues/IBFVAT
Restart Required: No
Instructions:
1. Download MSFM version 2025.01.01 or later. 2. Replace existing installation with patched version. 3. Verify pom.xml configuration is updated.
🔧 Temporary Workarounds
Restrict pom.xml file access
Linux/UnixLimit write access to pom.xml configuration file to prevent unauthorized modifications.
chmod 644 pom.xml
chown root:root pom.xml
🧯 If You Can't Patch
- Implement strict file integrity monitoring on pom.xml configuration file
- Deploy network segmentation to isolate MSFM instances from critical systems
🔍 How to Verify
Check if Vulnerable:
Check MSFM version and verify if pom.xml contains vulnerable deserialization configuration.Check Version:
Check MSFM documentation for version command or examine pom.xml version tagVerify Fix Applied:
Confirm MSFM version is 2025.01.01 or later and pom.xml has been updated.📡 Detection & Monitoring
Log Indicators:
- Unusual pom.xml modification events
- Java deserialization errors in application logs
- Unexpected process execution from MSFM
Network Indicators:
- Unusual outbound connections from MSFM process
- Suspicious payloads in HTTP requests to MSFM
