AI-analyzed exploit summary This repository provides a functional proof-of-concept for CVE-2026-40473, a Java deserialization vulnerability in Apache Camel's camel-mina component. The exploit sends a crafted serialized object via TCP to trigger remote code execution when the victim route deserializes the input without proper filtering.
Description
The camel-mina component's MinaConverter.toObjectInput(IoBuffer) type converter wraps an IoBuffer in a java.io.ObjectInputStream without applying any ObjectInputFilter or class-loading restrictions. When a Camel route uses camel-mina as a TCP or UDP consumer and requests conversion to ObjectInput (for example via getBody(ObjectInput.class) or @Body ObjectInput), an attacker sending a crafted serialized Java object over the network to the MINA consumer port can trigger arbitrary code execution in the context of the application during readObject(). This issue affects Apache Camel: from 3.0.0 before 4.14.6, from 4.15.0 before 4.18.2, from 4.19.0 before 4.20.0. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 4.20.0, which fixes the issue. If users are on the 4.14.x LTS releases stream, then they are suggested to upgrade to 4.14.6. If users are on the 4.18.x releases stream, then they are suggested to upgrade to 4.18.2.

The repository contains functional exploit code for CVE-2026-40473, demonstrating an unsafe deserialization vulnerability in Apache Camel's camel-mina component. The exploit leverages a raw TCP endpoint with disabled codecs to bypass MINA's filtering and achieve remote code execution via a CommonsCollections6 gadget chain.
