NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream hibernate-validator.src package and not the hibernate-validator.src package as distributed by RHEL.

ReflectionHelper (org.hibernate.validator.util.ReflectionHelper) in Hibernate Validator 4.1.0 before 4.2.1, 4.3.x before 4.3.2, and 5.x before 5.1.2 allows attackers to bypass Java Security Manager (JSM) restrictions and execute restricted reflection calls via a crafted application.
