CVE-2024-52577: Apache Ignite: Possible RCE when deserializing incoming messages by the server node

[Nikita Amelchev <namelchev () apache org>]

Affected versions:

- Apache Ignite 2.6.0 before 2.17.0

Description:

In Apache Ignite versions from 2.6.0 and before 2.17.0, configured Class Serialization Filters are ignored for some 
Ignite endpoints. The vulnerability could be exploited if an attacker manually crafts an Ignite message containing a 
vulnerable object whose class is present in the Ignite server classpath and sends it to Ignite server endpoints. 
Deserialization of such a message by the Ignite server may result in the execution of arbitrary code on the Apache 
Ignite server side.

This issue is being tracked as IGNITE-23594
