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.

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.
