Code execution via unfiltered cache deserialization
Published Jul 1, 2026 · Updated Jul 1, 2026
Deserialization in AWS Advanced JDBC Wrapper 3.3.0 through 4.0.0 allows remote authenticated users to execute code through a poisoned cache. RemoteQueryCachePlugin passes Redis or Valkey cache entries to ObjectInputStream without class filtering, allowing crafted Java objects to invoke available gadget chains. The plugin is disabled by default, and exploitation requires write access to the shared cache plus an application read of the poisoned result; successful code runs on that application server.

Exploitability
Present is not the same as exploitable
Compare your product and version with the public record. A matching version still requires validation against your environment.
Is a vulnerable build present?
Compare these published version ranges with your installed build and any vendor patches.
- Affected versionversion=3.3.0 <=4.0.0
