Vulnerability details

OmniFaces is a utility library for Faces. Prior to versions 1.14.2, 2.7.32, 3.14.16, 4.7.5, and 5.2.3, there is a server-side EL injection leading to Remote Code Execution (RCE). This affects applications that use CDNResourceHandler with a wildcard CDN mapping (e.g.…

libraryName:*=https://cdn.example.com/*). An attacker can craft a resource request URL containing an EL expression in the resource name, which is evaluated server-side. This issue has been patched in versions 1.14.2, 2.7.32, 3.14.16, 4.7.5, and 5.2.3.

T1059 Command and Scripting Interpreter Execution

Adversaries may abuse command and script interpreters to execute commands, scripts, or binaries.

Why these techniques?

Server-side EL injection in public-facing CDNResourceHandler directly enables RCE via crafted requests (T1190); resulting arbitrary code execution maps to command/scripting interpreters (T1059).
