CVE-2022-29567
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.
NVD · uneditedThe default configuration of a TreeGrid component uses Object::toString as a key on the client-side and server communication in Vaadin 14.8.5 through 14.8.9, 22.0.6 through 22.0.14, 23.0.0.beta2 through 23.0.8 and 23.1.0.alpha1 through 23.1.0.alpha4, resulting in potential information disclosure of values that should not be available on the client-side.
Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.
dbcve analysisThe application discloses data — error detail, internal paths, tokens, or other users' records — to someone who shouldn't see it. On its own it can look minor, but it hands attackers the map they need for a larger attack. Remediation is about minimising what's returned and enforcing authorization on every piece of data.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
dbcve · scopedVaadin 14.10+ (14.x), 22.0.16+ (22.x), or 23.0.9+/23.1.0 (23.x)
- 1. Identify which Vaadin version line (14.x, 22.x, or 23.x) your application is using
- 2. For Vaadin 14.x: Upgrade to version 14.10.0 or later
- 3. For Vaadin 22.x: Upgrade to version 22.0.16 or later
- 4. For Vaadin 23.x: Upgrade to version 23.0.9 or later (or 23.1.0 stable)
- 5. After upgrading, verify that the TreeGrid component behavior is as expected in your application
- 6. Test that no sensitive information from toString() methods is being exposed in client-server communication
