Official Description

Divisa Proxia Suite 9 < 9.12.16, 9.11.19, 9.10.26, 9.9.8, 9.8.43 and 9.7.10, 10.0 < 10.0.32, and 10.1 < 10.1.5, SparkSpace 1.0 < 1.0.30, 1.1 < 1.1.2, and 1.2 < 1.2.4, and Proxia PHR 1.0 < 1.0.30 and 1.1 < 1.1.2 allows remote code execution via untrusted Java deserialization. The proxia-error cookie is insecurely deserialized in every request (GET or POST). Thus, an unauthenticated attacker can easily craft a seria1.0lized payload in order to execute arbitrary code via the prepareError function in the com.divisait.dv2ee.controller.MVCControllerServlet class of the dv2eemvc.jar component. allows remote code execution via untrusted Java deserialization.

Technical Analysis

CVE-2019-18956 can be exploited remotely over the network without requiring physical or adjacent access, significantly expanding the attack surface for threat actors.

The vulnerability requires no privileges and no user interaction, making it a prime target for automated exploitation campaigns and worm-like propagation.

A successful exploit results in complete confidentiality breach (data exposure), full integrity compromise (data manipulation), availability disruption (denial of service), with a CVSS base score of 9.8.

From a weakness classification perspective (CWE-502): Insecure deserialization vulnerabilities allow attackers to inject malicious objects during deserialization, potentially enabling remote code execution.
