CVE-2023-32217Network attack vector

Authenticated code execution via unrestricted reflection

Published May 31, 2023 · Updated Jan 10, 2025

Unsafe reflection in SailPoint IdentityIQ allows remote authenticated users to invoke Java constructors through submitted forms. IdentityIQ form processing accepts a bean class from form data and reflectively instantiates any class on the application classpath with either no arguments or one Map argument. A valid account and a reachable form submission are required; the resulting effect depends on available classes and constructor side effects.
