Source description

As published by the source; long descriptions are shortened.

XXL-RPC is a high performance, distributed RPC framework. With it, a TCP server can be set up using the Netty framework and the Hessian serialization mechanism. When such a configuration is used, attackers may be able to connect to the server and provide malicious serialized objects that, once deserialized, force it to execute arbitrary code. This can be abused to take control of the machine the server is running by way of remote code execution. This issue has not been fixed.

# Patch Next advisory brief: CVE-2023-45146

Advisory: XXL-RPC Deserialization of Untrusted Data vulnerability
IDs: CVE-2023-45146, GHSA-f984-3wx8-grp9
Record: https://patchnext.com/advisories/cve-2023-45146 (revision 1, source checked 26 Oct 2026, 16:30 UTC)
Inventory: none attached. This brief comes from a public page and does not say whether any deployment is affected.
Severity: Critical (CVSS 9.5)
Exploitation: no confirmed exploitation recorded. Patch Next confirms exploitation only from CISA KEV.
Vendor response: Vendor response not established. A vendor fix does not mean a deployment is fixed.

## Affected components
- Maven com.xuxueli:xxl-rpc-core: affected <= 1.7.0

## Suggested inspection (read-only)
- Maven com.xuxueli:xxl-rpc-core: check the installed version with your package manager.

## Supported action
No complete vendor fix is recorded. Follow the primary source's mitigation guidance and check this record again before closing anything.

## Required regression checks
- Run the test suite and a production build.
- Exercise the features that depend on com.xuxueli:xxl-rpc-core.
- Repeat the inspection and confirm that only fixed versions remain installed.

## Rollback considerations
- Keep the previous lockfile and deployment artifact. Rolling back reinstates the vulnerable version, so apply any documented mitigation while you fix forward.

## Unresolved questions
- Which deployments run an affected version?
- Exploitation status can change. Check again before lowering the priority.
- Mark the work resolved only after the fixed version is verified in production.

## Sources
- Verified: https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-f984-3wx8-grp9 (GitHub-reviewed advisory GHSA-f984-3wx8-grp9 lists affected ranges: Maven com.xuxueli:xxl-rpc-core >=0 <=1.7.0)

Commands are suggestions: review each one before running it.
