How to fix?

There is no fixed version for struts:struts.

Overview

struts:struts is a part of the Struts framework.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Arbitrary Code Execution where the class property is not suppressed. It allows remote attackers to "manipulate" the ClassLoader and to execute arbitrary code via the class parameter, as demonstrated by the passing of this parameter to the getClass method of the ActionForm object in Struts 1.

Note: Struts1 has been deprecated. Users should use Struts2 which is not vulnerable to this issue.
