Overview
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Remote Code Execution (RCE) through the improper use of Apache commons-jxpath. An attacker can execute arbitrary code on the system by sending crafted input that manipulates the processing of user-controlled data.
Note:
This vulnerability was recorded before in JAXPath as CVE-2022-41852 but deemed not a vulnerability because the intended behavior of the JXPath library is not to handle untrusted input, this having to be handled downstream.
