[jira] [Commented] (IO-461) Veracode scan detected OS command injection vulnerability in commons-io-1.2.jar - FileSystemUtils.java:357

["Bernd Eckenfels (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IO-461?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14378520#comment-14378520 ] 

Bernd Eckenfels commented on IO-461:
------------------------------------

Just for the record, openProcessStream(String[] params) forwards the String array 1:1 to Runtime.getRuntime().exec(params), so this API is as dangerous or not dangerous to use like the normal system class. Iff there is a vulnerability then it is in the application code. (there are executor frameworks which are doing much more wrong :)

> Commons IO is embedded in EMC Corporation's DFS 6.7SP1.
> We performed Veracode scan for DFS 6.7SP1 and scan reported that code in commons-io-1.2.jar - FileSystemUtils.java:357 (no further details) is POSSIBLY vulnerable for OS command injection attacks.
> Need update on this from Apache side.
> It it really vulnerable? if yes, is it fixed in some future version?
