CVE-2026-41862
Received Received - Intake
Remote Code Execution in Spring Statemachine via Unsafe Deserialization

Publication date: 2026-06-23

Last updated on: 2026-06-23

Assigner: VMware

Description
Spring Statemachine's Kryo-based persistence backends (JPA, MongoDB, Redis and ZooKeeper) deserialise persisted state-machine contexts without enforcing a class allowlist (CWE-502, deserialisation of untrusted data), which can lead to remote code execution inside the application JVM. Affected versions: Spring Statemachine 4.0.0 through 4.0.1 Spring Statemachine 3.2.0 through 3.2.4

Executive Summary

This vulnerability exists in Spring Statemachine's Kryo-based persistence backends (including JPA, MongoDB, Redis, and ZooKeeper). It involves deserialising persisted state-machine contexts without enforcing a class allowlist, which is a security weakness known as CWE-502 (deserialization of untrusted data). Because of this, an attacker can potentially execute remote code inside the application's Java Virtual Machine (JVM).

Impact Analysis

The vulnerability can lead to remote code execution within the application JVM. This means an attacker could run arbitrary code on the affected system, potentially leading to full system compromise, data theft, data corruption, or disruption of services.
