CRITICALMySQL JDBC deserialization vulnerability
EPSS Exploitation Probability
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) is a daily probability model maintained by FIRST.org. It estimates the likelihood a CVE will be exploited in production environments within the next 30 days, derived from real-world threat intelligence signals.

Description
Impact
In Dataease, the Mysql data source in the data source function can customize the JDBC connection parameters and the Mysql server target to be connected.

In backend/src/main/java/io/dataease/provider/datasource/JdbcProvider.java, MysqlConfiguration class don't filter any parameters, directly concat user input.
@Getter
@Setter
public class MysqlConfiguration extends JdbcConfiguration {
private String driver = "com.mysql.jdbc.Driver";
private String extraParams = "characterEncoding=UTF-8&connectTimeout=5000&useSSL=false&allowPublicKeyRetrieval=true&zeroDateTimeBehavior=convertToNull";
public String getJdbc() {
if(StringUtils.isEmpty(extraParams.trim())){
return "jdbc:mysql://HOSTNAME:PORT/DATABASE"
.replace("HOSTNAME", getHost().trim())
.replace("PORT", getPort().toString().trim())
.replace("DATABASE", getDataBase().trim());
}else {
return "jdbc:mysql://HOSTNAME:PORT/DATABASE?EXTRA_PARAMS"
.replace("HOSTNAME", getHost().trim())
.replace("PORT", getPort().toString().trim())
.replace("DATABASE", getDataBase().trim())
.replace("EXTRA_PARAMS", getExtraParams().trim());
}
}
}
So, if the attack add some parameters in JDBC url, and connect to evil mysql server, he can trigger the mysql jdbc deserialization vulnerability, and eventually the attacker can execute through the deserialization vulnerability system commands and obtain server privileges.
Affected versions: < 1.15.2
Patches
The vulnerability has been fixed in v1.15.2.

the MysqlConfiguration class use illegalParameters filter illegal parameters to fix this vulnerability.

public class MysqlConfiguration extends JdbcConfiguration {
private String driver = "com.mysql.jdbc.Driver";
private String extraParams = "characterEncoding=UTF-8&connectTimeout=5000&useSSL=false&allowPublicKeyRetrieval=true&zeroDateTimeBehavior=convertToNull";
private List<String> illegalParameters = Arrays.asList("autoDeserialize", "queryInterceptors", "statementInterceptors", "detectCustomCollations");
public String getJdbc() {
if (StringUtils.isEmpty(extraParams.trim())) {
return "jdbc:mysql://HOSTNAME:PORT/DATABASE"
.replace("HOSTNAME", getHost().trim())
.replace("PORT", getPort().toString().trim())
.replace("DATABASE", getDataBase().trim());
} else {
for (String illegalParameter : illegalParameters) {
if (getExtraParams().contains(illegalParameter)) {
throw new RuntimeException("Illegal parameter: " + illegalParameter);
}
}
return "jdbc:mysql://HOSTNAME:PORT/DATABASE?EXTRA_PARAMS"
.replace("HOSTNAME", getHost().trim())
.replace("PORT", getPort().toString().trim())
.replace("DATABASE", getDataBase().trim())
.replace("EXTRA_PARAMS", getExtraParams().trim());
}
}
}
Workarounds
It is recommended to upgrade the version to v1.15.2.

Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for io.dataease:dataease-plugin-common. O3's reachability analysis confirms whether the vulnerable code path is actually invoked in your application, so you act on real exposure instead of every transitive match.
Fix
Update io.dataease:dataease-plugin-common to 1.15.2 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-q4qq-jhjv-7rh2 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.
Workarounds
If you can't upgrade right away: gate or disable the affected feature, validate untrusted input at the boundary, and avoid passing attacker-controlled data into the vulnerable path. O3's runtime protection blocks exploitation in production as an interim safeguard until the upgrade lands.
How O3 protects you
O3 pinpoints whether GHSA-q4qq-jhjv-7rh2 is reachable in your code and exactly where to fix it, then blocks exploitation in production at runtime until the patched version is deployed.
Tailored to GHSA-q4qq-jhjv-7rh2. Runtime protection reduces exposure until a permanent patch is applied and verified — it complements patching, it doesn't replace it.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is GHSA-q4qq-jhjv-7rh2 in your dependencies?
O3 detects GHSA-q4qq-jhjv-7rh2 across Maven dependencies and uses function-level reachability to confirm whether the vulnerable code path is actually reachable — not just present. No false positives.
