CWE-502Published: February 20, 2024· Updated: Jun 17, 2026
Official Description
Deserialization of Untrusted Data vulnerability in Apache Camel CassandraQL Component AggregationRepository which is vulnerable to unsafe deserialization. Under specific conditions it is possible to deserialize malicious payload.This issue affects Apache Camel: from 3.0.0 before 3.21.4, from 3.22.0 before 3.22.1, from 4.0.0 before 4.0.4, from 4.1.0 before 4.4.0.
Users are recommended to upgrade to version 4.4.0, which fixes the issue. If users are on the 4.0.x LTS releases stream, then they are suggested to upgrade to 4.0.4. If users are on 3.x, they are suggested to move to 3.21.4 or 3.22.1
Risk Analysis
Apache Camel is vulnerable to unsafe deserialization of untrusted data in its CassandraQL component, which can lead to remote code execution. This is a critical vulnerability that is remotely exploitable.
There is no known public exploit for this vulnerability, and it is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog.
Upgrade to Apache Camel version 4.4.0, 4.0.4, 3.21.4, or 3.22.1 depending on your current release stream.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2024-23114 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.
