M Denial of Service (DoS) org.springframework:spring-webmvc is a package that provides Model-View-Controller (MVC) architecture and ready components that can be used to develop flexible and loosely coupled web applications. Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Denial of Service (DoS) via MVC controller `@RequestBody byte[]` method parameters. Note: This vulnerable open source versions are no longer supported and the fixed version 5.3.42 is only available for the commercial release. How to fix Denial of Service (DoS)?

H Path Traversal org.springframework:spring-webmvc is a package that provides Model-View-Controller (MVC) architecture and ready components that can be used to develop flexible and loosely coupled web applications. Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Path Traversal through the functional web frameworks `WebMvc.fn` or `WebFlux.fn`. An attacker can craft malicious HTTP requests and obtain any file on the file system that is also accessible. Note: This is similar to CVE-2024-38816, but with different input.

L Improper Handling of Case Sensitivity org.springframework:spring-webmvc is a package that provides Model-View-Controller (MVC) architecture and ready components that can be used to develop flexible and loosely coupled web applications. Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Improper Handling of Case Sensitivity due to `String.toLowerCase()` having some Locale dependent exceptions that could potentially result in fields not protected as expected. Note: The fix for CVE-2022-22968 made `disallowedFields` patterns in `DataBinder` case insensitive. This vulnerability was also fixed in commercial versions 5.3.41 and 6.0.25.

H Path Traversal org.springframework:spring-webmvc is a package that provides Model-View-Controller (MVC) architecture and ready components that can be used to develop flexible and loosely coupled web applications. Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Path Traversal via the `WebMvc.fn` and `WebFlux.fn` frameworks. An attacker can access any file on the file system that is also accessible to the process in which the Spring application is running by crafting malicious HTTP requests. Note: This is only exploitable if the web application uses `RouterFunctions` to serve static resources and resource handling is explicitly configured with a `FileSystemResource` location. How to fix Path Traversal? Upgrade `org.springframework:spring-webmvc` to version 6.1.13 or higher.	[,6.1.13)
M Multipart Content Pollution org.springframework:spring-webmvc is a package that provides Model-View-Controller (MVC) architecture and ready components that can be used to develop flexible and loosely coupled web applications. Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Multipart Content Pollution. It provides client-side support for multipart requests. When the server application (server A) receives input from a remote client, and then uses that input to make a multipart request to another server (server B), it can be exposed to an attack, where an extra multipart is inserted in the content of the request from server A, causing server B to use the wrong value for a part it expects. This could to lead privilege escalation, for example, if the part content represents a username or user roles. How to fix Multipart Content Pollution? Upgrade `org.springframework:spring-webmvc` to version 4.3.14.RELEASE, 5.0.5.RELEASE or higher.	[4.3.0.RELEASE,4.3.14.RELEASE)[5.0.0.RELEASE,5.0.5.RELEASE)
M Directory Traversal org.springframework:spring-webmvc Spring provides everything you need beyond the Java language to create enterprise applications in a wide range of scenarios and architectures. Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Directory Traversal. When static resources are served from a file system on Windows (as opposed to the classpath, or the ServletContext), a malicious user can send a request using a specially crafted URL that can lead a directory traversal attack. How to fix Directory Traversal? Upgrade `org.springframework:spring-webmvc` to version 4.3.15, 5.0.5 or higher.	[,4.3.15.RELEASE)[5.0.0.RELEASE,5.0.5.RELEASE)
M Information Exposure org.springframework:spring-webmvc is a package that provides Model-View-Controller (MVC) architecture and ready components that can be used to develop flexible and loosely coupled web applications. Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Information Exposure. It allows web applications to enable cross-domain requests via JSONP (JSON with Padding) through `AbstractJsonpResponseBodyAdvice` for REST controllers, and `MappingJackson2JsonView` for browser requests. When `MappingJackson2JsonView` is configured in an application, JSONP support is automatically ready to use through the `jsonp` and `callback` JSONP parameters, enabling cross-domain requests. Allowing cross-domain requests from untrusted origins may expose user information to 3rd party browser scripts. How to fix Information Exposure? Upgrade `org.springframework:spring-webmvc` to version 4.3.18.RELEASE, 5.0.7.RELEASE or higher.	[4.3.0.RELEASE,4.3.18.RELEASE)[5.0.0.RELEASE,5.0.7.RELEASE)
