Remote and unauthenticated (AV:N/PR:N/UI:N) but gated on a specific non-default XsltView/'/**'/implicit-view configuration beyond the attacker's control, so AC:H; RCE yields full C/I/A impact.

DescriptionCVE.org

Use of XsltView in a Spring MVC application can result in SSRF and RCE attack if the application has an "/**" mapping that results in view rendering, and where the view name is not explicitly specified. Spring Framework 7.0.0 - 7.0.8 Spring Framework 6.2.0 - 6.2.19 Spring Framework 6.1.0 - 6.1.28 Spring Framework 6.0.0 - 6.0.30 Spring Framework 5.3.0 - 5.3.49 Spring Framework 5.2.25.RELEASE and earlier

AnalysisAI

Server-side request forgery and remote code execution affect the Spring Framework's XsltView component across the 5.2.x through 7.0.x branches (5.2.25.RELEASE and earlier, 5.3.0-5.3.49, 6.0.0-6.0.30, 6.1.0-6.1.28, 6.2.0-6.2.19, and 7.0.0-7.0.8). When a Spring MVC application maps '/' to view rendering and does not explicitly set a view name, an attacker can steer view resolution to XsltView and supply a path that triggers outbound requests and code execution. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires three specific application-side prerequisites drawn directly from the description: (1) the Spring MVC application must use XsltView; (2) it must have a '/**' handler mapping that results in view rendering; and (3) the view name must NOT be explicitly specified, so it is inferred from the request in a way the attacker can influence. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The signals conflict and must be weighed rather than taken at face value. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in.
Remediation Patch available per vendor advisory: consult the Spring security advisory at https://spring.io/security/cve-2026-47884 for the exact fixed maintenance releases and upgrade to the patched version on your branch (5.3.x, 6.0.x, 6.1.x, 6.2.x, or 7.0.x); note that the 5.2.x line is out of open-source support and may require a commercial/extended-support release or migration to a supported branch. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours: Identify all Spring Framework deployments running versions 5.2.x through 7.0.x (specifically 5.2.25 and earlier, 5.3.0-5.3.49, 6.0.0-6.0.30, 6.1.0-6.1.28, 6.2.0-6.2.19, 7.0.0-7.0.8) with '/**' route mappings; implement Web Application Firewall rules to block suspicious XSLT view resolution attempts; restrict application server outbound network connectivity to limit SSRF impact. …
