CVE-2025-15246
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 · uneditedA vulnerability was determined in aizuda snail-job up to 1.7.0 on macOS. Affected by this vulnerability is the function FurySerializer.deserialize of the component API. This manipulation of the argument argsStr causes deserialization. Remote exploitation of the attack is possible. The exploit has been publicly disclosed and may be utilized.
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 · moderate confidenceThe vulnerability exists in the FurySerializer.deserialize function within the API component of aizuda snail-job up to version 1.7.0. The argsStr argument is not properly validated before deserialization, allowing remote attackers to inject malicious serialized payloads. The issue is exploitable on macOS systems.

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 snail-job installation and versionLocate the snail-job installation directory and check the version file or build metadata. Common locations include /opt/snail-job, /usr/local/snail-job, or within the application's JAR/WAR manifest files. Look for a version.txt, VERSION file, or inspect the pom.xml/build.gradle if source is available.Affected if The installed version is 1.7.0 or lower (any version up to and including 1.7.0).
-
Confirm API component is enabledExamine the application configuration files (application.yml or application.properties) for API-related settings. Look for server.port, api.enabled, or controller-related configurations. Check if REST endpoints are exposed by default on common ports like 8080 or 17888.Affected if The API component is exposed and accessible on the network.
-
Check for FurySerializer usage in codeSearch the deployed application JAR/WAR files or source code for the FurySerializer class. Inspect the deserialize method calls, particularly any that process argsStr or similar string parameters from HTTP requests.Affected if The FurySerializer.deserialize function processes untrusted input from API requests.
-
Verify operating system environmentRun 'uname -a' or 'sw_vers' to confirm the host operating system. This vulnerability is noted as exploitable specifically on macOS systems.Affected if The system is running macOS and meets all other conditions.
You are affected if snail-job version 1.7.0 or lower is installed, the API component is accessible, and the system is macOS (or deserialization of untrusted argsStr input is possible regardless of OS).

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.
From vendor dataUpgrade to a version beyond 1.7.0 when available; otherwise, implement strict input validation on the argsStr parameter and restrict API access to trusted sources to mitigate remote exploitation.
