NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream apache-commons-beanutils-javadoc package and not the apache-commons-beanutils-javadoc package as distributed by Amazon-Linux. See How to fix? for Amazon-Linux:2 relevant fixed versions and status.

In Apache Commons Beanutils 1.9.2, a special BeanIntrospector class was added which allows suppressing the ability for an attacker to access the classloader via the class property available on all Java objects. We, however were not using this by default characteristic of the PropertyUtilsBean.
