NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream shiro package and not the shiro package as distributed by Ubuntu. See How to fix? for Ubuntu:25.04 relevant fixed versions and status.

Apache Shiro before 1.13.0 or 2.0.0-alpha-4, may be susceptible to a path traversal attack that results in an authentication bypass when used together with path rewriting

Mitigation: Update to Apache Shiro 1.13.0+ or 2.0.0-alpha-4+, or ensure blockSemicolon is enabled (this is the default).
