An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: Yes. Attackers have exploited CVE-2015-7450 in the wild since at least 10 Jan 2022.\n\nAffected product: Ibm Sterling B2b Integrator. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2015-7450/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2015-7450/index.md)","id":"CVE-2015-7450","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2015-7450/index.md","name":"CVE-2015-7450","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-8987-qgc7-79p9"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"IBM enterprise products","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can execute arbitrary commands via crafted serialized Java objects in IBM products using Apache Commons Collections.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"deserialization"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"ibm","cpe":[{"product":"sterling_b2b_integrator","vendor":"ibm"},{"product":"sterling_integrator","vendor":"ibm"},{"product":"tivoli_common_reporting","vendor":"ibm"},{"product":"watson_content_analytics","vendor":"ibm"},{"product":"watson_explorer_analytical_components","vendor":"ibm"},{"product":"watson_explorer_annotation_administration_console","vendor":"ibm"},{"product":"websphere_application_server","vendor":"ibm"}],"cvss":{"score":9.8,"severity":"critical","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-502","name":"Deserialization of Untrusted Data"}],"description":"Serialized-object interfaces in certain IBM analytics, business solutions, cognitive, IT infrastructure, and mobile and social products allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via a crafted serialized Java object, related to the InvokerTransformer class in the Apache Commons Collections library.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":1,"first_seen":"2015-11-06","github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":1,"nuclei":1,"refs":[{"date":"2015-11-06","kind":"metasploit","ref":"exploit/windows/misc/ibm_websphere_java_deserialize","stars":null,"title":"IBM WebSphere RCE Java Deserialization Vulnerability"},{"date":"2017-03-15","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"41613","stars":null,"title":"IBM WebSphere -
