CVE-2023-29215
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 · uneditedIn Apache Linkis <=1.3.1, due to the lack of effective filtering of parameters, an attacker configuring malicious Mysql JDBC parameters in JDBC EengineConn Module will trigger a deserialization vulnerability and eventually lead to remote code execution. Therefore, the parameters in the Mysql JDBC URL should be blacklisted. Versions of Apache Linkis <= 1.3.0 will be affected. We recommend users upgrade the version of Linkis to version 1.3.2.
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 analysis · high confidenceApache Linkis <=1.3.1 contains a deserialization vulnerability in the JDBC EngineConn Module. Attackers can configure malicious MySQL JDBC parameters that bypass input filtering, leading to arbitrary code execution. The fix requires blacklisting dangerous parameters in MySQL JDBC URLs.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.
dbcve checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Identify installed Apache Linkis versionCheck the Linkis version file or pom.xml in the installation directory, or run: cat $LINKIS_HOME/RELEASE or check the version in the management consoleAffected if The version is 1.3.1 or lower
-
Verify JDBC EngineConn is in useCheck if the JDBC EngineConn plugin is deployed or enabled in the Linkis configuration files under engine-plugins or through the EngineConnManagerAffected if JDBC EngineConn is enabled and MySQL is configured as a data source
-
Inspect MySQL JDBC connection URL configurationsExamine Linkis database source configuration files (such as linkis-mg.properties, datasource configuration files, or JDBC URL settings) for MySQL connection stringsAffected if MySQL JDBC URLs contain configurable parameters that could be manipulated
-
Review JDBC parameter filtering settingsCheck Linkis configuration for any existing parameter blacklist or whitelist settings related to JDBC connection URLsAffected if No parameter blacklist exists or dangerous parameters like allowLoadLocalInfile, autoDeserialize, or other deserialization-related MySQL JDBC parameters are not explicitly blocked
You are affected if Apache Linkis version is 1.3.1 or lower and the JDBC EngineConn module is configured to connect to MySQL databases without parameter blacklisting in place.
Generated from the published advisory. Verify against your own configuration.
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 · scopedUpgrade Apache Linkis to version 1.3.2 and implement parameter blacklisting for MySQL JDBC connection URLs to block malicious parameters.
1.3.2
- Backup your current Linkis installation and configuration data
- Download Apache Linkis version 1.3.2 from the official Apache repository
- Stop the current Linkis services
- Upgrade the Linkis installation to version 1.3.2 using your deployment method (e.g., standard upgrade procedure)
- Restart all Linkis services
- Verify that the JDBC EngineConn Module functions correctly with the upgrade
