Overview

org.springframework:spring-webflux is a Spring Framework module that contains support for reactive HTTP and WebSocket clients as well as for reactive server web applications including REST, HTML browser, and WebSocket style interactions.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Session Fixation. via session fixation handling. An attacker controlling a compromised subdomain can obtain a known session identifier and subsequently cause it to be associated with an authenticated user session, allowing unauthorized use of the victim's authenticated session.

Note: This is only exploitable if an attacker can control or execute script within a subdomain of the target application (for example through a cross-site scripting vulnerability).
