Network-reachable, unauthenticated, low-complexity trigger with availability-only impact (heap exhaustion); no confidentiality or integrity effect, scope unchanged, contingent on app accepting user SpEL.

DescriptionNVD
Applications which accept user-supplied Spring Expression Language (SpEL) expressions may be vulnerable to a Denial of Service (DoS) attack if the evaluation of a SpEL expression triggers unbounded cache growth.
Affected versions: Spring Framework 7.0.0 through 7.0.7; 6.2.0 through 6.2.18; 6.1.0 through 6.1.27; 5.3.0 through 5.3.48.
AnalysisAI
Denial of service in VMware's Spring Framework (versions 5.3.0-5.3.48, 6.1.0-6.1.27, 6.2.0-6.2.18, and 7.0.0-7.0.7) lets remote attackers exhaust memory in applications that evaluate user-supplied Spring Expression Language (SpEL) expressions, where crafted expressions trigger unbounded internal cache growth. No authentication or user interaction is required per the CVSS vector (PR:N/UI:N), and the impact is availability-only (C:N/I:N/A:H). There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, and the EPSS probability is very low (0.01%, 2nd percentile), though CISA's SSVC framework flags the issue as automatable.
