NVD description
The fix for CVE-2026-41635 was not applied to the 2.1.X and 2.2.X branches. Here was the original issue description:
Apache MINA's AbstractIoBuffer.resolveClass() contains two branches, one of them (for static classes or primitive types) does not check the class at all, bypassing the classname allowlist and allowing arbitrary code to be executed.
The fix checks if the class is present in the accepted class filter before calling Class.forName().
Affected versions are Apache MINA 2.1.0 <= 2.1.11, and 2.2.0 <= 2.2.6.
The problem is resolved in Apache MINA 2.1.12, and 2.2.7 by
applying the classname allowlist earlier.
Affected are applications using Apache MINA that call IoBuffer.getObject().
Applications using Apache MINA are advised to upgrade.

3. The "Invisible Patch" Problem
Not all patches actually work. In April 2026 alone, we saw:
Apache MINA CVE-2026-42779: "Patched" deserialization flaw that still had a bypass
Spring Boot CVE-2026-40976: "Fixed" auth flaw that attackers exploited 72 hours after patch…
Post summary
The post highlights that two recent patches were ineffective, as attackers exploited the flaws within hours, underscoring the need for rigorous validation of fixes.
However:
CVE-2026-42778: Static initializers of disallowed classes execute before the allowlist check, allowing gadgets like Runtime.exec() to fire even on rejected types.
CVE-2026-42779: Primitive types (int, byte, etc.) and static class references (e.g., String.class)…
Post summary
The snippet announces two new CVEs with technical details on how static initializers bypass allowlist checks and enable gadget execution.
TL;DR
Apache MINA 2.1.x and 2.2.x contain two critical remote code execution vulnerabilities (CVE-2026-42778 and CVE-2026-42779) stemming from insecure deserialization. The patches were written months ago but failed to merge into two release branches due to repository…
Post summary
Apache MINA 2.1.x and 2.2.x contain two critical RCE vulnerabilities (CVE-2026-42778 & CVE-2026-42779) caused by insecure deserialization; patches existed months earlier but were not merged into the release branches.
CVE-2026-42779: Logic-Flaw RCE in AbstractIoBuffer.resolveClass()
