CVE-2023-29215
CWE-502Published: April 10, 2023· Updated: Jun 17, 2026
Official Description
In Apache Linkis <=1.3.1, due to the lack of effective filtering
of parameters, an attacker configuring malicious Mysql JDBC parameters in JDBC EengineConn Module will trigger a
deserialization vulnerability and eventually lead to remote code execution. Therefore, the parameters in the Mysql JDBC URL should be blacklisted. Versions of Apache Linkis <= 1.3.0 will be affected.
We recommend users upgrade the version of Linkis to version 1.3.2.
Risk Analysis
Apache Linkis is susceptible to a deserialization vulnerability triggered by malicious MySQL JDBC parameters in the EngineConn module. This critical flaw allows for remote code execution and is rated 9.8.
No public exploit is known for this vulnerability, and it is not in the CISA KEV catalog. It is remotely exploitable with low complexity.
Users should upgrade to Apache Linkis version 1.3.2 and ensure JDBC parameters are properly filtered.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2023-29215 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.
