The Solr plugin of Apache OFBiz is configured by default to automatically make a RMI request on localhost, port 1099. In version 18.12.05 and earlier, by hosting a malicious RMI server on localhost, an attacker may exploit this behavior, at server start-up or on a server restart, in order to run arbitrary code. Upgrade to at least 18.12.06 or apply patches at https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-12646.

  • →Monitor for outbound or loopback RMI connections to localhost:1099 initiated by the Apache OFBiz Solr plugin process, especially at server start-up or restart, which may indicate exploitation of a malicious local RMI server. ↗
  • →Flag Apache OFBiz instances running versions at or before 18.12.05 as vulnerable; look for the absence of commit 061252a80 to identify unpatched deployments. ↗
  • ·The malicious RMI server must be hosted on localhost (127.0.0.1), meaning the attacker requires local access or the ability to bind a service on the loopback interface of the target server prior to OFBiz start-up or restart. ↗
  • ·Exploitation window is limited to server start-up or restart events, not continuous runtime; detection strategies should account for this timing constraint. ↗
