CVE-2023-29216Network attack vector

Remote code execution via unsafe MySQL parameters

Published Apr 10, 2023 · Updated Feb 13, 2025

Deserialization in Apache Linkis 1.3.1 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute code via crafted MySQL data-source parameters. The DataSource Manager accepts user-controlled JDBC options such as autoDeserialize because its background validation does not filter them comprehensively. A reachable data-source configuration interface and a MySQL Connector/J path are required, and successful exploitation runs code on the Linkis server.
