NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream libspring-java package and not the libspring-java package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:13 relevant fixed versions and status.

Spring Framework, versions 5.0.x prior to 5.0.6, versions 4.3.x prior to 4.3.17, and older unsupported versions allows applications to expose STOMP over WebSocket endpoints with a simple, in-memory STOMP broker through the spring-messaging module. A malicious user (or attacker) can craft a message to the broker that can lead to a regular expression, denial of service attack.
