A remote code execution vulnerability exists in Apache Dubbo versions 2.7.6 and below due to insecure deserialization of RPC request parameters. An attacker can craft RPC requests with arbitrary service or method names and supply malicious serialized payloads. When Dubbo deserializes these parameters, attacker-controlled code can be executed on the server.

This repository is the official Apache Dubbo Spring Boot integration project, containing core modules, auto-configuration, actuator support, and multiple sample applications. Of particular interest is the sample in 'dubbo-spring-boot-samples/auto-configure-samples/consumer-sample', which demonstrates a Java deserialization exploit against a Dubbo provider. The consumer constructs a malicious payload using Rome and marshalsec gadgets, embedding a JNDI LDAP reference (ldap://127.0.0.1:8087/Exploit), and sends it to the provider's DemoService.commonTest(Object o) method via Dubbo RPC (targeting 127.0.0.1:12345). If the provider is vulnerable (i.e., it deserializes untrusted data), this can result in remote code execution via JNDI. The exploit is operational and demonstrates a real attack vector, but is not weaponized for mass exploitation. The rest of the repository consists of Dubbo Spring Boot integration code, configuration, and test cases.
