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.

How to fix Path Traversal?

Upgrade org.springframework:spring-webmvc to version 6.1.14 or higher.

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.

How to fix Improper Handling of Case Sensitivity?

Upgrade org.springframework:spring-webmvc to version 6.1.14 or higher.

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.
