CVE-2026-55153: JNDI Injection and Deserialization Gadget Abuse in mchange-commons-java

Vulnerability ID: CVE-2026-55153
CVSS Score: 7.1
Published: 2026-08-14

A JNDI Injection and Deserialization Gadget vulnerability exists in mchange-commons-java prior to version 0.6.0. The com.mchange.v2.naming.JavaBeanObjectFactory component permits arbitrary class instantiation and setter invocation, allowing attackers to perform Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) and remote class loading.

TL;DR

Unsafe reflection and dynamic instantiation in mchange-commons-java's JavaBeanObjectFactory allows attackers to trigger SSRF and JNDI injection via crafted object references.
