DescriptionCVE.org

Missing Authentication for Critical Function vulnerability in Spring Spring Cloud Config allows Webhook requests to Spring Cloud Config Server's /monitor endpoint are not validated.

This issue affects Spring Cloud Config: from 5.0.0 through 5.0.4, from 4.3.0 through 4.3.4, from 4.0.0 through 4.2.8, and through 3.1.14.

AnalysisAI

Unauthenticated webhook requests can be sent to Spring Cloud Config Server's /monitor endpoint due to missing validation of incoming webhook payloads, enabling any network-accessible attacker to trigger configuration refresh events across connected microservices. Affected are all branches including 3.x through 3.1.14, 4.0.x through 4.2.8, 4.3.x through 4.3.4, and 5.0.x through 5.0.4 - a broad spread across major release lines. …
