IBM Operational Decision Manager 8.10.3 could allow a remote authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system, caused by an unsafe deserialization. By sending specially crafted request, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code in the context of SYSTEM. IBM X-Force ID: 279146.

url/res/login.jsf?javax.faces.ViewState=
path/res/login.jsf
  • The exploit targets the javax.faces.ViewState parameter on /res/login.jsf with a serialized Java gadget payload (base64-encoded). Detect HTTP GET requests to this endpoint where ViewState contains a deserialization payload.
  • A successful exploit attempt results in an HTTP 500 response containing 'javax.servlet.ServletException' in the response body — use this as a positive indicator of a triggered deserialization error.
  • Identify IBM ODM instances exposed on the internet using Shodan query 'html:"IBM ODM"' or FOFA query 'title="IBM ODM"' — these are candidate targets for CVE-2024-22320.
  • The attack vector is a remote authenticated GET request with a Java deserialization gadget embedded in the javax.faces.ViewState query parameter, exploiting unsafe JSF ViewState deserialization in IBM ODM versions 8.10.3, 8.10.4, 8.10.5.1, 8.11, 8.11.0.1, and 8.12.0.1.
  • ·Exploitation requires authentication — the attacker must be a remote authenticated user. Unauthenticated scanning will not trigger the vulnerability.
  • ·The Nuclei template uses an out-of-band DNS interaction (interactsh) to confirm code execution; detection based solely on HTTP 500 / ServletException may produce false positives without OOB confirmation.
