NVD Description

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

Apache Shiro before 1.3.2 allows attackers to bypass intended servlet filters and gain access by leveraging use of a non-root servlet context path.
