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 · unedited
Valtimo is a platform for Business Process Automation. In versions before 12.16.0.RELEASE, and from 13.0.0.RELEASE to before 13.1.2.RELEASE, any admin that can create or modify and execute process-definitions could gain access to sensitive data or resources. This includes but is not limited to: running executables on the application host, inspecting and extracting data from the host environment or application properties, spring beans (application context, database pooling). The following conditions have to be met in order to perform this attack: the user must be logged in, have the admin role, and must have some knowledge about running scripts via a the Camunda/Operator engine. Version 12.16.0 and 13.1.2 have been patched. It is strongly advised to upgrade. If no scripting is needed in any of the processes, it could be possible to disable it altogether via the ProcessEngineConfiguration. However, this workaround could lead to unexpected side-effects.

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.

How this class of weakness works · CWE-78

User input reaches a shell or system command without being fully separated from the command itself, so an attacker can append their own instructions. Because these run with the application's privileges, it often means full control of the host. The lasting fix is to avoid the shell entirely — call APIs directly and pass arguments as data, never as concatenated strings.

Recommended fix High confidence

12.16.0.RELEASE (for 12.x line) or 13.1.2.RELEASE (for 13.x line)

  1. 1. Identify the current Valtimo version in use by checking your project dependencies or build configuration
  2. 2. If using Valtimo 12.x line (versions before 12.16.0), upgrade to version 12.16.0.RELEASE
  3. 3. If using Valtimo 13.x line (versions from 13.0.0 to before 13.1.2), upgrade to version 13.1.2.RELEASE
  4. 4. Update the dependency version in your build configuration (pom.xml, build.gradle, or similar)
  5. 5. Rebuild and redeploy the application
  6. 6. Verify the application starts successfully and process definitions function correctly
  7. 7. As an alternative mitigation if upgrading is not immediately possible, disable scripting in ProcessEngineConfiguration by setting the appropriate configuration option (note: this may cause unexpected side-effects in processes that rely on scripting)
Caveat Standard upgrade risks apply - review release notes for any breaking changes between your current version and the target version
