Overview

org.apache.struts:struts2-core is a popular open-source framework for developing web applications in the Java programming language.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Improper Input Validation. It evaluates a string as an OGNL expression during the handling of a conversion error, which allows remote attackers to modify run-time data values, and consequently execute arbitrary code, via invalid input to a field.
