Confluence Unauthenticated Remote Code Execution CVE-2022-26134

Original Source: [splunk source]
Name:Confluence Unauthenticated Remote Code Execution CVE-2022-26134
id:fcf4bd3f-a79f-4b7a-83bf-2692d60b859c
version:3
date:2024-09-30
author:Michael Haag, Splunk
status:production
type:TTP
Description:The following analytic detects attempts to exploit CVE-2022-26134, an unauthenticated remote code execution vulnerability in Confluence. It leverages the Web datamodel to analyze network and CIM-compliant web logs, identifying suspicious URL patterns and parameters indicative of exploitation attempts. This activity is significant as it allows attackers to execute arbitrary code on the Confluence server without authentication, potentially leading to full system compromise. If confirmed malicious, this could result in unauthorized access, data exfiltration, and further lateral movement within the network. Immediate investigation and remediation are crucial to prevent extensive damage.
Data_source:
  • -Palo Alto Network Threat
search:| tstats count min(_time) as firstTime max(_time) as lastTime from datamodel=Web where Web.url IN ("*${*", "*%2F%7B*") (Web.url="*org.apache.commons.io.IOUtils*" Web.url="*java.lang.Runtime@getRuntime().exec*") OR (Web.url="*java.lang.Runtime%40getRuntime%28%29.exec*") OR (Web.url="*getEngineByName*" AND Web.url="*nashorn*" AND Web.url="*ProcessBuilder*") by Web.http_user_agent Web.http_method, Web.url,Web.url_length Web.src, Web.dest sourcetype

| `security_content_ctime(firstTime)`
| `security_content_ctime(lastTime)`
| `confluence_unauthenticated_remote_code_execution_cve_2022_26134_filter`


how_to_implement:This detection requires the Web datamodel to be populated from a supported Technology Add-On like Splunk for Apache or Splunk for Nginx. In addition, network based logs or event data like PAN Threat.
known_false_positives:Tune based on assets if possible, or restrict to known Confluence servers. Remove the ${ for a more broad query. To identify more exec, remove everything up to the last parameter (Runtime().exec) for a broad query.
