DescriptionNVD

Spring Security's InetAddressMatchers utility provides matchInternal() and matchExternal() builders for constructing an InetAddressMatcher that classifies a given IP address as belonging to an internal (private) or external (public) network. Spring Security 7.1.0

AnalysisAI

Spring Security 7.1.0's InetAddressMatchers utility contains a flaw in its IP address classification logic - the matchInternal() and matchExternal() builders may incorrectly categorize certain IP addresses as belonging to internal or external networks, enabling unauthenticated remote attackers to bypass IP-based access controls under high-complexity conditions. Applications that rely on InetAddressMatchers to enforce network-level access restrictions are exposed to limited information disclosure where restricted endpoints or data may become accessible to external parties. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation The target application must use Spring Security 7.1.0 and must invoke the InetAddressMatchers API - specifically matchInternal() or matchExternal() builders - as part of its HTTP security filter chain to make access control decisions. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment CVSS rates this 3.7 Low with vector AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N. … 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 No specific patched version number is provided in the available intelligence data; consult the VMware/Broadcom Spring Security advisory at https://spring.io/security/cve-2026-59277 for the exact fix release and upgrade instructions. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
