USN-8465-1: Apache MINA vulnerabilities

Publication date

23 June 2026

Overview

Apache MINA could be made to run programs if it received specially crafted network traffic.


Packages

  • mina2 - Apache MINA is a network application framework which helps users develop high performance and high scalability network applications easily

Details

It was discovered that Apache MINA lacked an acceptMatchers allowlist
mechanism to restrict which classes could be deserialized. An attacker
could use this to execute arbitrary code. This issue only affected
Ubuntu 22.04 LTS and Ubuntu 24.04 LTS. (CVE-2024-52046)

It was discovered that Apache MINA's deserialization filter could be
bypassed via multiple code paths. An attacker could use this to execute
arbitrary code by sending a specially crafted serialized object over the
network. (CVE-2026-42778, CVE-2026-42779, CVE-2026-47065)

Update instructions

In general, a standard system update will make all the necessary changes.

The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following package versions:

Ubuntu Release Package Version
26.04 LTS resolute libmina2-java –  2.2.1-4ubuntu0.1~esm1  
24.04 LTS noble libmina2-java –  2.2.1-3ubuntu0.1~esm1  
22.04 LTS jammy libmina2-java –  2.1.5-1ubuntu0.1~esm1  

Reduce your security exposure

Ubuntu Pro provides ten-year security coverage to 25,000+ packages in Main and Universe repositories, and it is free for up to five machines.
