About CVE-2022-42889 

Apache Commons Text performs variable interpolation, allowing properties to be dynamically evaluated and expanded. The standard format for interpolation is "${prefix:name}", where "prefix" is used to locate an instance of org.apache.commons.text.lookup.StringLookup that performs the interpolation. Starting with version 1.5 and continuing through 1.9, the set of default Lookup instances included interpolators that could result in arbitrary code execution or contact with remote servers. These lookups are: - "script" - execute expressions using the JVM script execution engine (javax.script) - "dns" - resolve dns records - "url" - load values from urls, including from remote servers Applications using the interpolation defaults in the affected versions may be vulnerable to remote code execution or unintentional contact with remote servers if untrusted configuration values are used. Users are recommended to upgrade to Apache Commons Text 1.10.0, which disables the problematic interpolators by default.

An exploit was found in the Apache Common Text library using the interpolation function. Some of the public references are:

NOTE: Data Insight is NOT affected by CVE-2022-42889

As of current versions,, Data Insight (DI) may use the Apache Commons Text, however, Data Insight does not use the impacted component of StringSubstitutor in any of the DI modules. Hence DI is not impacted by this Remote Code Execution (RCE) vulnerability and is not exploitable. DI does not require any mitigation.

Further, adhering to the best security practices, Data Insight will keep updating the third-party libraries in each release version, including in upcoming 6.4.1 and future versions as well.
