Improper certificate validation in Cloud Foundry's bosh-vsphere-cpi-release exposes vCenter administrator credentials to any attacker with a network position between the BOSH Director and vCenter. The vSphere CPI transmits credentials via HTTP Basic authentication on every routine cloud infrastructure operation and fails to enforce TLS certificate authenticity, allowing a rogue endpoint to impersonate the vCenter REST API and silently capture those credentials. Successful interception yields full administrative control over every virtual machine, datastore, and network segment managed by the compromised vCenter instance. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, and this CVE does not appear in the CISA KEV catalog.
Improper authorization in Spring Security's embedded UnboundID test LDAP server (UnboundIdContainer) exposes an administrative directory account to the network: the container unconditionally registers an admin credential and binds its listener to all local interfaces (0.0.0.0) rather than loopback. Affected releases span 5.7.0-5.7.25, 5.8.0-5.8.27, 6.4.0-6.4.18, 6.5.0-6.5.11, 7.0.0-7.0.6 and 7.1.0; any application that instantiates this container becomes reachable by remote unauthenticated clients that can then read and modify directory contents using the known admin bind. No public exploit has been identified, and EPSS is low (0.29%, 21st percentile).
Path traversal in Spring Cloud Config Server's native environment repository allows unauthenticated remote attackers to read arbitrary files outside the configured search-locations directory on the server filesystem. Affected deployments span four release lines - 3.1.14 and earlier, 4.0.0-4.2.8, 4.3.0-4.3.4, and 5.0.0-5.0.4 - and are limited to the native filesystem backend mode. No public exploit code has been identified and CISA KEV does not list this vulnerability, though the centralized role of Config Server as a secrets store elevates real-world impact beyond the raw EPSS percentile.
Spring WebFlux applications that enable WebSocket connections leak request headers - potentially containing Authorization tokens, session cookies, or API keys - through exception reason messages exposed over the WebSocket channel. All maintained Spring Framework release trains from 5.2.x through 7.0.x are affected, covering the vast majority of actively deployed Spring reactive applications. The vulnerability is classified as information disclosure (CWE-209), and while the CVSS score is 7.5, the EPSS score of 0.14% (4th percentile) indicates very low observed exploitation probability; no public exploit or CISA KEV listing exists at time of analysis.
Authorization bypass in Spring Framework WebFlux functional-endpoint applications deployed on DispatcherServlet allows an attacker to defeat header-based route predicates by sending a CORS pre-flight (OPTIONS) request, reaching routes that should have been gated by header conditions. It affects Spring Framework 5.2.5-5.2.25, 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 in the specific WebFlux-functional-plus-DispatcherServlet deployment mode. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, and EPSS exploitation probability is low (0.19%, 9th percentile).
Denial of service in Spring Framework WebFlux applications (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, 7.0.0-7.0.8) occurs when the Aalto XML processor is used to parse request bodies, because the maxInMemorySize buffering limit is not correctly enforced. Remote attackers can submit oversized XML to trigger unbounded in-memory buffering and exhaust heap memory. No public exploit identified at time of analysis; EPSS is low (0.14%, 4th percentile) and CISA SSVC lists exploitation status as none, though it rates the flaw automatable with total technical impact.
Cross-response information disclosure and stream corruption affects Spring Framework 6.2.0-6.2.19 and 7.0.0-7.0.8 (both MVC and WebFlux) when applications serve Server-Sent Events (SSE) together with view fragments, letting remote attackers corrupt the event stream and potentially bleed data across responses. No public exploit is identified at time of analysis and CISA has not listed the flaw in KEV; EPSS is low at 0.15% (5th percentile). The vendor-assigned 9.8 rating sits uneasily against the CWE-93 root cause, the 'Information Disclosure' tagging, and the SSVC 'exploitation: none' status, suggesting the paper severity outruns observed real-world risk.
WebFlux applications in Spring Framework running on the Jetty 12 Core reactive adapter omit the SameSite cookie attribute from serialized response cookies, exposing session and authentication cookies to cross-site request contexts. Affected versions span Spring Framework 6.2.0-6.2.19 and 7.0.0-7.0.8, covering a substantial footprint of reactive Java deployments on Jetty 12. The vulnerability carries a vendor CVSS of 7.5 with C:H reflecting potential session-token disclosure; no public exploit code or active exploitation (CISA KEV) has been identified, and EPSS places exploitation probability at 0.14% (4th percentile).
Memory exhaustion in Spring Framework's RSocket server implementation allows unauthenticated remote attackers to crash or degrade affected applications by sending malformed SETUP frames that trigger unreclaimed heap allocations. All actively maintained Spring Framework branches are affected - 5.2.x through 7.0.x - with the condition that the application must explicitly expose an RSocket endpoint. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, and CISA SSVC confirms no current exploitation activity, though the attack is classified as automatable.
Uncontrolled resource consumption in Spring Framework's SpEL evaluator allows unauthenticated remote attackers to trigger a Denial of Service by submitting expressions using the power operator (^) with BigDecimal or BigInteger operands and arbitrarily large exponents, causing unbounded CPU and memory exhaustion in the JVM. All maintained Spring Framework release lines from 5.2.x through 7.0.x are affected, covering a large portion of the enterprise Java ecosystem. No public exploit has been identified and exploitation probability is very low (EPSS 0.15%, 4th percentile), though SSVC flags the attack class as automatable.
Spring WebFlux's PartEventHttpMessageReader fails to enforce the configured maxPartSize limit when maxInMemorySize is explicitly set to -1, allowing remote unauthenticated attackers to upload multipart request parts of arbitrary size in violation of application-defined policy. Affected are Spring Framework 6.1.0 through 6.1.28, 6.2.0 through 6.2.19, and 7.0.0 through 7.0.8. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis and EPSS is very low at 0.15% (4th percentile), but the SSVC automatable flag means scanning and exploitation can be automated at scale against exposed endpoints.
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. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, and the EPSS probability is low (0.16%), but SSVC rates the technical impact as total and automatable.
Server-side request forgery (SSRF) in Spring Cloud Gateway's JsonToGrpcGatewayFilterFactory allows an authenticated gateway administrator to specify arbitrary Spring Resource URLs as the proto descriptor location, causing the gateway to fetch attacker-controlled internal or external resources. Affected versions span the 3.x through 5.x release trains (CPE: cpe:2.3:a:vmware:spring_cloud_gateway). A successful exploit enables the gateway host to be weaponized as an HTTP pivot into internal network services, with confidentiality and integrity impact on systems beyond the gateway boundary (S:C). No public exploit or active exploitation has been identified at time of analysis.
Remote code execution in Spring Integration allows a remote, unauthenticated attacker to run arbitrary code on applications that expose the SerializingHttpMessageConverter on an inbound HTTP endpoint. The converter reads any request body sent with Content-Type application/x-java-serialized-object through a raw java.io.ObjectInputStream.readObject() with no allow-list or class filtering, so if any known Java deserialization gadget is present on the application classpath it can be chained to code execution. No public exploit is identified at time of analysis, but EPSS places it in the 88th percentile (3.44%) and the vulnerability class is well-understood, making it a high-priority patch for exposed deployments.
Spring Data REST fails to protect entity identifier (@Id) and optimistic-locking version (@Version) fields from mutation through RFC 6902 JSON Patch (application/json-patch+json) PATCH requests, allowing authenticated low-privilege network attackers to overwrite primary keys and version counters on exposed JPA entities. Affected versions span the full 3.x lineage through 5.1.0, representing a broad swath of the Spring ecosystem. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, and this vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog.
Sensitive information disclosure in Dell Virtual Storage Integrator (VSI) for VMware vSphere Client, all versions prior to 10.11.1.0, lets an unauthenticated remote attacker retrieve active session credentials and hijack authenticated sessions, including those of administrators. Because stolen session tokens grant full impersonation of legitimate users, Dell rates this critical (CVSS 9.8); there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and it is not listed in CISA KEV, but the SSVC framework flags it as automatable with total technical impact. EPSS remains low at 0.39% (32nd percentile), consistent with the absence of observed exploitation to date.
Remote code execution in Dell Virtual Storage Integrator (VSI) for VMware vSphere Client, all versions prior to 10.11.1.0, lets an unauthenticated remote attacker inject OS commands through the IAPI component and run them as root on the appliance's host OS. Because the flaw requires no authentication and no user interaction over the network, it enables full compromise of the VSI deployment and the storage infrastructure it manages. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, but the CVSS 9.8 rating and unauthenticated root RCE make this a top-priority patch.
Information disclosure and host-process Denial-of-Service affects VMware ESX, Workstation, and Fusion via an out-of-bounds read (CWE-125) reachable by an actor holding VM deployment privileges. On ESX the flaw can crash or leak memory from the host VMX process (a guest-to-host scope crossing), while on Workstation and Fusion the impact is limited to information disclosure. Reported by VMware/Broadcom with no public exploit identified at time of analysis and no CISA KEV listing.
Guest-to-host escape in VMware ESX (and the ESX component of Cloud Foundation, vSphere Foundation, and Telco Cloud Platform) lets an attacker with administrative privileges inside a virtual machine execute code on the underlying hypervisor host via an out-of-bounds write in the VMXNET3 virtual network adapter. Only VMs configured with the VMXNET3 adapter are affected; other virtual NIC types are not. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and it is not listed in CISA KEV, but the vendor-issued Broadcom/VMware advisory and the CVSS 9.3 score reflect a critical host-compromise impact.
Authentication bypass in VMware vCenter's Directory Service (vmdir) lets an attacker with network reachability to vCenter defeat the authentication algorithm and obtain unauthorized access without valid credentials. Because vCenter is the central management plane for vSphere environments, this exposes control over the entire virtual estate; the flaw is remotely exploitable with no privileges or user interaction (CVSS 9.8). At time of analysis there is no public exploit identified and it is not listed in CISA KEV, but the reporting vendor (VMware/Broadcom) rates it critical.
Remote code execution in VMware vCenter Server (and bundled distributions including Cloud Foundation, vSphere Foundation, Telco Cloud Infrastructure, and Telco Cloud Platform) arises from a directory traversal flaw in the Syslog server component, enabling any actor with network reach to vCenter to run arbitrary code. The CVSS 9.8 vector indicates unauthenticated, low-complexity network exploitation with full confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, and it is not yet listed in CISA KEV, but the vCenter management plane's central role makes this a top-priority patch.
Directory traversal in VMware Avi Load Balancer (formerly Avi Networks NSX Advanced Load Balancer) lets authenticated network users bypass file path validation to reach files outside intended directories. Rated CVSS 8.8, the flaw is exploitable remotely by any authenticated user (PR:L) and the vendor scores full high confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact, implying potential arbitrary file read and/or write on the appliance. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and it is not listed in CISA KEV.
Privilege escalation in VMware Avi Load Balancer exposes authenticated, network-accessible users to remote code execution across a wide version range spanning 22.1.x through 32.1.x. The CVSS 8.8 rating reflects low-complexity, low-privilege network exploitation yielding full confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact on affected systems. No public exploit code has been identified and the vulnerability is absent from CISA KEV; EPSS at 0.39% (31st percentile) confirms limited active exploitation pressure at time of analysis.
Remote code execution in VMware Avi Load Balancer exposes organizations running versions from 22.1.1 through 32.1.1 to arbitrary code injection by low-privileged authenticated users with network access. The flaw is classified as CWE-94 code injection, meaning attacker-supplied input reaches an execution context without adequate sanitization. Broadcom has released patches across all affected branches; no public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, and the EPSS score of 0.68% (48th percentile) reflects modest current exploitation probability despite the high CVSS 8.8 rating.
Local privilege escalation in VMware (Broadcom) Avi Load Balancer allows a user who already has local access to the appliance to elevate to root and run arbitrary code. It affects the 22.1.x, 30.x, 31.x and 32.1.x release lines, is CVSS 7.8, and was reported by the vendor. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and it is not listed in CISA KEV.
Remote code execution in VMware Avi Load Balancer exposes the Avi Control Plane to arbitrary code execution by any low-privileged, network-connected user, stemming from a code injection flaw (CWE-94) in the controller. Multiple major version branches from 22.1.1 through 32.1.1 are confirmed affected, with vendor-released patches available across all branches. No public exploit code or CISA KEV listing has been identified at time of analysis, though the CVSS 8.8 rating and full high-impact triad (C:H/I:H/A:H) make this a high-priority patch target for any deployment where the control plane is network-reachable.
Authorization bypass in VMware Avi Load Balancer (branches 22.1.x, 30.x, 31.x, and 32.1.1) allows a network-based actor holding low-privilege credentials to reach a limited subset of the Avi Control Plane without proper authorization. Rated CVSS 8.3 by VMware/Broadcom with CWE-863 (Incorrect Authorization), the flaw exposes control-plane functionality that should be gated behind higher authorization. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and no CISA KEV listing, so exploitation is currently theoretical rather than observed.
Authentication bypass in VMware Avi Load Balancer (versions 22.1.1-22.1.7, 30.1.1-30.2.6, and 31.1.1-31.2.2) lets a network-adjacent attacker circumvent the login mechanism and reach the Avi Controller control plane. Reported by VMware/Broadcom, it carries a CVSS 9.8 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N) reflecting full unauthenticated compromise of confidentiality, integrity and availability. No public exploit is identified at time of analysis and it is not on the CISA KEV list, but the flaw class (CWE-287) and network-reachable admin plane make it a high-priority patch.
Credential interception in kubev2v assisted-migration-agent allows network-positioned attackers to harvest vCenter administrator credentials because the agent's vCenter client establishes TLS connections with certificate verification effectively disabled by default. The flaw, reported by Red Hat and tracked as EUVD-2026-36032, has no public exploit identified at time of analysis and an EPSS score of 0.01% (percentile 1%), but successful MITM exploitation yields full administrative access to the targeted vCenter.
Authentication bypass via X.509 certificate impersonation in Spring Security affects versions 5.7.0-5.7.24, 5.8.0-5.8.26, 6.3.0-6.3.17, 6.4.0-6.4.17, and 6.5.0-6.5.10, where the SubjectDnX509PrincipalExtractor mishandles malformed Common Name (CN) values and resolves the principal to the wrong identity. An attacker holding a carefully crafted client certificate can authenticate as a different legitimate user, gaining their privileges. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, and the EPSS score of 0.02% (4th percentile) reflects no observed exploitation activity.
Insecure deserialization in Spring for Apache Pulsar's JsonPulsarHeaderMapper allows remote attackers to bypass trusted-package controls and potentially trigger arbitrary Java object instantiation through Pulsar message headers. The flaw stems from a prefix-based package match plus an unsafe empty-allow-list default, affecting versions 1.1.0-1.1.17, 1.2.0-1.2.17, and 2.0.0-2.0.5. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, but the CVSS 8.1 rating and CWE-502 classification place this firmly in the high-impact Java deserialization category that has historically yielded remote code execution.
Unsafe deserialization in Spring for Apache Kafka (versions 2.8.0-4.0.5 across multiple branches) allows a malicious Kafka producer to send crafted message headers that cause downstream consumers to instantiate arbitrary JDK types via Jackson. The flaw stems from a prefix-based trusted-packages check in JsonKafkaHeaderMapper and the deprecated DefaultKafkaHeaderMapper, which silently extends trust to every subpackage. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, but the bug class (CWE-502 with Jackson default typing) has a long history of leading to remote code execution in Spring/Java ecosystems.
Server-Side Expression Language (SpEL) injection in Spring Data REST allows authenticated remote attackers to execute arbitrary expressions by sending JSON Patch requests targeting Map-typed entity properties. Affected versions span 3.7.0 through 5.0.5, and successful exploitation yields high confidentiality and integrity impact (CVSS 8.1). No public exploit identified at time of analysis, but the low attack complexity and network reachability make this a credible threat to any exposed REST repository accepting application/json-patch+json.
Authorization bypass in Spring Data REST's JSON Patch handler allows remote unauthenticated attackers to modify protected entity fields by routing writes through intermediate path segments of a multi-segment JSON Pointer. The flaw affects Spring Data REST 3.7.x through 5.0.5 and carries a CVSS 7.5 (high) integrity-only impact; no public exploit has been identified at time of analysis and it is not listed in CISA KEV.
Remote code execution risk in Spring Data MongoDB arises from a SpEL expression injection flaw (CWE-917) triggered during parameter binding for repository methods annotated with @Query that use a capture-all placeholder. With CVSS 8.1 (AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N) and no public exploit identified at time of analysis, unauthenticated attackers who can influence query parameters reaching such a method could execute arbitrary SpEL expressions on the server.
Insecure deserialization in Spring Security 7.0.0 through 7.0.5 allows an attacker with write access to the saml2_asserting_party_metadata database table to store malicious serialized Java payloads in the verification_credentials or encryption_credentials columns, leading to code execution when the JdbcAssertingPartyMetadataRepository deserializes them. The flaw affects deployments using the JDBC-backed SAML 2.0 asserting-party metadata repository introduced in the Spring Security 7.x line. No public exploit identified at time of analysis and EPSS is very low (0.01%), but CVSS rates impact as High due to full confidentiality, integrity, and availability loss on the application.
Denial of service in Spring Security's SAML 2.0 service provider module allows remote unauthenticated attackers to exhaust application memory by submitting a maliciously compressed SAML payload over the REDIRECT binding. The flaw stems from an unbounded inflater that decompresses attacker-controlled data without size limits, enabling a classic decompression-bomb attack against any Spring application using SAML Login or Logout. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, but the network-reachable, no-authentication CVSS profile (7.5 High) makes this a near-term patching priority for SAML-enabled deployments.
Stored cross-site scripting in VMware Cloud Foundation Operations (formerly Aria Operations) allows authenticated users with policy, view, or text-widget creation privileges to inject malicious scripts that execute in other users' browsers, including administrators. Affected products include VCF Operations 5.x through 9.1.x, VMware Aria Operations 8.18.x, and VMware Telco Cloud Platform 5.x. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, and the issue is not listed in CISA KEV.
Local privilege escalation in VMware Fusion allows authenticated users with non-administrative privileges to gain root access by exploiting a TOCTOU race condition in a SETUID binary. The vulnerability requires local access and low attack complexity (CVSS:3.1 AV:L/AC:L/PR:L), enabling complete system compromise on macOS hosts running affected Fusion versions. EPSS and KEV status data not available; exploitation requires existing local user access but can bypass all privilege boundaries once triggered.
Local privilege-driven data corruption in the Intel Data Center Graphics Driver for VMware ESXi before version 2.0.2 allows a privileged local adversary to trigger an out-of-bounds write (CWE-787) in a Ring 1 device driver, causing denial of service and integrity loss. The flaw affects the vulnerable system's integrity and availability (both High) with no confidentiality impact, and carries a CVSS 4.0 base score of 8.3. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, and the EPSS probability is negligible at 0.01%.
Local privilege escalation in the Intel Data Center Graphics Driver for VMware ESXi before version 2.0.2 lets a privileged local user trigger a Ring 1 device-driver buffer overflow to execute arbitrary code and take total control of the host. The flaw carries a CVSS 4.0 base score of 9.3 with high confidentiality, integrity and availability impact on both the vulnerable and subsequent systems. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, and the EPSS score is negligible at 0.01% (3rd percentile), consistent with the SSVC verdict of no known exploitation.
Local privilege-abusing denial of service and information disclosure in the Intel Data Center Graphics Driver for VMware ESXi before version 2.0.2 lets a privileged local user trigger an out-of-bounds read (CWE-125) in the Ring 1 device-driver layer, potentially crashing the host and exposing adjacent memory. The flaw carries a CVSS 4.0 base score of 8.3 driven by high confidentiality and availability impact plus a scope change into subsequent systems. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, EPSS is negligible (0.01%), and CISA SSVC rates exploitation as 'none' and non-automatable.
Conversation memory poisoning in VMware Spring AI allows remote unauthenticated attackers to inject malicious input that persists across conversation turns and manipulates AI model behavior. The vulnerability achieves high integrity impact (CVSS 8.2) through stored prompt injection, enabling attackers to alter model responses, extract sensitive context, or bypass application logic without authentication. No active exploitation confirmed at time of analysis, but the network-accessible attack surface and low complexity make this a priority for applications processing user-generated conversational input.
Remote unauthenticated attackers can access confidential data from other users' chat sessions in Spring AI applications due to insecure default configuration in the chat memory component. The vulnerability allows network-based exploitation with no authentication required (CVSS:3.1 AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N) and impacts confidentiality only (C:H/I:N/A:N), enabling cross-user data leakage in multi-tenant AI chat implementations. Reported by VMware, affecting Java-based Spring AI deployments where developers have not explicitly configured chat memory isolation.
SQL injection in Spring AI's CosmosDBVectorStore component (versions 1.0.0-1.0.5 and 1.1.0-1.1.4) enables authenticated remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL queries through malicious document IDs, potentially achieving full database compromise including data exfiltration, modification, and denial of service. VMware has released patches in versions 1.0.6 and 1.1.5. CVSS score of 8.8 reflects high impact across confidentiality, integrity, and availability, though exploitation requires low-privilege authenticated access to the vector store API.
Authentication bypass in Spring Boot 4.0.0-4.0.5 allows remote unauthenticated attackers to access all application endpoints, bypassing default web security filters entirely. Affects servlet-based applications using spring-boot-actuator-autoconfigure without custom Spring Security configuration and without spring-boot-health dependency. Vendor patch released (upgrade to 4.0.6+). No public exploit code identified at time of analysis, but CVSS 9.1 with network attack vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N) indicates trivial exploitation once configuration prerequisites are met.
Predictable secret generation in Spring Boot's random value property source allows remote, unauthenticated attackers to obtain potentially sensitive values. Affected versions include Spring Boot 4.0.0 to 4.0.5, 3.5.x, 3.4.x, 3.3.x, and 2.7.x before the respective patch releases. The vulnerability has a CVSS score of 7.5 (High) but no active exploitation has been confirmed, and EPSS suggests a very low likelihood of exploitation.
Spring Boot's Cassandra auto-configuration fails to verify hostnames during SSL/TLS connection establishment to Cassandra servers, enabling man-in-the-middle attackers on the local network to intercept credentials and data by presenting a valid certificate for any domain. Affects Spring Boot 2.7.0-4.0.5; vendor-released patches available for all supported versions (4.0.6, 3.5.14, 3.4.16, 3.3.19, 2.7.33). No public exploit code identified at time of analysis.
Local privilege escalation and session hijacking in Spring Boot allows attackers with local access to hijack authenticated sessions or execute arbitrary code by taking control of the ApplicationTemp directory. The vulnerability affects Spring Boot versions 2.7.0 through 4.0.5 when server.servlet.session.persistent is enabled, requiring attack persistence across application restarts. VMware has released patches for all supported branches (4.0.6, 3.5.14, 3.4.16, 3.3.19, 2.7.33), though unsupported versions remain vulnerable. No active exploitation confirmed at time of analysis.
SSL bundle configuration bypass in VMware Spring Cloud Gateway 4.2.0 allows unaneticated remote attackers to compromise integrity through forced fallback to default SSL settings. When administrators configure custom SSL bundles via spring.ssl.bundle property, the framework silently ignores this configuration and applies insecure defaults instead, enabling man-in-the-middle attacks against intended encrypted communications. Affects Spring Cloud Gateway 4.2.0 with no public exploit identified at time of analysis.
This is an authentication bypass vulnerability in Spring Boot applications using Spring Security with Actuator endpoints. When an authenticated application endpoint is declared under the CloudFoundry Actuator path, attackers can bypass authentication requirements and gain unauthorized access to protected resources. The vulnerability affects multiple versions of Spring Security from 2.7.0 through 4.0.3 and carries a high CVSS score of 8.2, though no active exploitation or proof-of-concept has been reported.
Spring AI's AbstractFilterExpressionConverter fails to properly escape user-controlled input in JSONPath queries, allowing authenticated attackers to inject arbitrary expressions and bypass access controls in vector store implementations. This impacts applications relying on the converter for multi-tenant isolation, role-based access, or metadata-based document filtering, enabling attackers to access unauthorized documents. No patch is currently available.
A critical SQL injection vulnerability in Spring AI's MariaDBFilterExpressionConverter component allows authenticated attackers to bypass metadata-based access controls and execute arbitrary SQL commands due to missing input sanitization. VMware Spring AI versions 1.0.x prior to 1.0.4 and 1.1.x prior to 1.1.3 are affected. With a CVSS score of 8.8, this vulnerability enables attackers with low-level privileges to compromise confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the database system through network-based attacks with low complexity.

Rated critical severity (CVSS 9.8), this vulnerability is remotely exploitable, no authentication required, low attack complexity. Public exploit code available and no vendor patch available.
Improper certificate validation in Cloud Foundry's bosh-vsphere-cpi-release exposes vCenter administrator credentials to any attacker with a network position between the BOSH Director and vCenter. The vSphere CPI transmits credentials via HTTP Basic authentication on every routine cloud infrastructure operation and fails to enforce TLS certificate authenticity, allowing a rogue endpoint to impersonate the vCenter REST API and silently capture those credentials. Successful interception yields full administrative control over every virtual machine, datastore, and network segment managed by the compromised vCenter instance. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, and this CVE does not appear in the CISA KEV catalog.
Improper authorization in Spring Security's embedded UnboundID test LDAP server (UnboundIdContainer) exposes an administrative directory account to the network: the container unconditionally registers an admin credential and binds its listener to all local interfaces (0.0.0.0) rather than loopback. Affected releases span 5.7.0-5.7.25, 5.8.0-5.8.27, 6.4.0-6.4.18, 6.5.0-6.5.11, 7.0.0-7.0.6 and 7.1.0; any application that instantiates this container becomes reachable by remote unauthenticated clients that can then read and modify directory contents using the known admin bind. No public exploit has been identified, and EPSS is low (0.29%, 21st percentile).
Path traversal in Spring Cloud Config Server's native environment repository allows unauthenticated remote attackers to read arbitrary files outside the configured search-locations directory on the server filesystem. Affected deployments span four release lines - 3.1.14 and earlier, 4.0.0-4.2.8, 4.3.0-4.3.4, and 5.0.0-5.0.4 - and are limited to the native filesystem backend mode. No public exploit code has been identified and CISA KEV does not list this vulnerability, though the centralized role of Config Server as a secrets store elevates real-world impact beyond the raw EPSS percentile.
Spring WebFlux applications that enable WebSocket connections leak request headers - potentially containing Authorization tokens, session cookies, or API keys - through exception reason messages exposed over the WebSocket channel. All maintained Spring Framework release trains from 5.2.x through 7.0.x are affected, covering the vast majority of actively deployed Spring reactive applications. The vulnerability is classified as information disclosure (CWE-209), and while the CVSS score is 7.5, the EPSS score of 0.14% (4th percentile) indicates very low observed exploitation probability; no public exploit or CISA KEV listing exists at time of analysis.
Authorization bypass in Spring Framework WebFlux functional-endpoint applications deployed on DispatcherServlet allows an attacker to defeat header-based route predicates by sending a CORS pre-flight (OPTIONS) request, reaching routes that should have been gated by header conditions. It affects Spring Framework 5.2.5-5.2.25, 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 in the specific WebFlux-functional-plus-DispatcherServlet deployment mode. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, and EPSS exploitation probability is low (0.19%, 9th percentile).
Denial of service in Spring Framework WebFlux applications (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, 7.0.0-7.0.8) occurs when the Aalto XML processor is used to parse request bodies, because the maxInMemorySize buffering limit is not correctly enforced. Remote attackers can submit oversized XML to trigger unbounded in-memory buffering and exhaust heap memory. No public exploit identified at time of analysis; EPSS is low (0.14%, 4th percentile) and CISA SSVC lists exploitation status as none, though it rates the flaw automatable with total technical impact.
Cross-response information disclosure and stream corruption affects Spring Framework 6.2.0-6.2.19 and 7.0.0-7.0.8 (both MVC and WebFlux) when applications serve Server-Sent Events (SSE) together with view fragments, letting remote attackers corrupt the event stream and potentially bleed data across responses. No public exploit is identified at time of analysis and CISA has not listed the flaw in KEV; EPSS is low at 0.15% (5th percentile). The vendor-assigned 9.8 rating sits uneasily against the CWE-93 root cause, the 'Information Disclosure' tagging, and the SSVC 'exploitation: none' status, suggesting the paper severity outruns observed real-world risk.
WebFlux applications in Spring Framework running on the Jetty 12 Core reactive adapter omit the SameSite cookie attribute from serialized response cookies, exposing session and authentication cookies to cross-site request contexts. Affected versions span Spring Framework 6.2.0-6.2.19 and 7.0.0-7.0.8, covering a substantial footprint of reactive Java deployments on Jetty 12. The vulnerability carries a vendor CVSS of 7.5 with C:H reflecting potential session-token disclosure; no public exploit code or active exploitation (CISA KEV) has been identified, and EPSS places exploitation probability at 0.14% (4th percentile).
Memory exhaustion in Spring Framework's RSocket server implementation allows unauthenticated remote attackers to crash or degrade affected applications by sending malformed SETUP frames that trigger unreclaimed heap allocations. All actively maintained Spring Framework branches are affected - 5.2.x through 7.0.x - with the condition that the application must explicitly expose an RSocket endpoint. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, and CISA SSVC confirms no current exploitation activity, though the attack is classified as automatable.
Uncontrolled resource consumption in Spring Framework's SpEL evaluator allows unauthenticated remote attackers to trigger a Denial of Service by submitting expressions using the power operator (^) with BigDecimal or BigInteger operands and arbitrarily large exponents, causing unbounded CPU and memory exhaustion in the JVM. All maintained Spring Framework release lines from 5.2.x through 7.0.x are affected, covering a large portion of the enterprise Java ecosystem. No public exploit has been identified and exploitation probability is very low (EPSS 0.15%, 4th percentile), though SSVC flags the attack class as automatable.
Spring WebFlux's PartEventHttpMessageReader fails to enforce the configured maxPartSize limit when maxInMemorySize is explicitly set to -1, allowing remote unauthenticated attackers to upload multipart request parts of arbitrary size in violation of application-defined policy. Affected are Spring Framework 6.1.0 through 6.1.28, 6.2.0 through 6.2.19, and 7.0.0 through 7.0.8. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis and EPSS is very low at 0.15% (4th percentile), but the SSVC automatable flag means scanning and exploitation can be automated at scale against exposed endpoints.
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. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, and the EPSS probability is low (0.16%), but SSVC rates the technical impact as total and automatable.
Server-side request forgery (SSRF) in Spring Cloud Gateway's JsonToGrpcGatewayFilterFactory allows an authenticated gateway administrator to specify arbitrary Spring Resource URLs as the proto descriptor location, causing the gateway to fetch attacker-controlled internal or external resources. Affected versions span the 3.x through 5.x release trains (CPE: cpe:2.3:a:vmware:spring_cloud_gateway). A successful exploit enables the gateway host to be weaponized as an HTTP pivot into internal network services, with confidentiality and integrity impact on systems beyond the gateway boundary (S:C). No public exploit or active exploitation has been identified at time of analysis.
Remote code execution in Spring Integration allows a remote, unauthenticated attacker to run arbitrary code on applications that expose the SerializingHttpMessageConverter on an inbound HTTP endpoint. The converter reads any request body sent with Content-Type application/x-java-serialized-object through a raw java.io.ObjectInputStream.readObject() with no allow-list or class filtering, so if any known Java deserialization gadget is present on the application classpath it can be chained to code execution. No public exploit is identified at time of analysis, but EPSS places it in the 88th percentile (3.44%) and the vulnerability class is well-understood, making it a high-priority patch for exposed deployments.
Spring Data REST fails to protect entity identifier (@Id) and optimistic-locking version (@Version) fields from mutation through RFC 6902 JSON Patch (application/json-patch+json) PATCH requests, allowing authenticated low-privilege network attackers to overwrite primary keys and version counters on exposed JPA entities. Affected versions span the full 3.x lineage through 5.1.0, representing a broad swath of the Spring ecosystem. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, and this vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog.
Sensitive information disclosure in Dell Virtual Storage Integrator (VSI) for VMware vSphere Client, all versions prior to 10.11.1.0, lets an unauthenticated remote attacker retrieve active session credentials and hijack authenticated sessions, including those of administrators. Because stolen session tokens grant full impersonation of legitimate users, Dell rates this critical (CVSS 9.8); there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and it is not listed in CISA KEV, but the SSVC framework flags it as automatable with total technical impact. EPSS remains low at 0.39% (32nd percentile), consistent with the absence of observed exploitation to date.
Remote code execution in Dell Virtual Storage Integrator (VSI) for VMware vSphere Client, all versions prior to 10.11.1.0, lets an unauthenticated remote attacker inject OS commands through the IAPI component and run them as root on the appliance's host OS. Because the flaw requires no authentication and no user interaction over the network, it enables full compromise of the VSI deployment and the storage infrastructure it manages. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, but the CVSS 9.8 rating and unauthenticated root RCE make this a top-priority patch.
Information disclosure and host-process Denial-of-Service affects VMware ESX, Workstation, and Fusion via an out-of-bounds read (CWE-125) reachable by an actor holding VM deployment privileges. On ESX the flaw can crash or leak memory from the host VMX process (a guest-to-host scope crossing), while on Workstation and Fusion the impact is limited to information disclosure. Reported by VMware/Broadcom with no public exploit identified at time of analysis and no CISA KEV listing.
Guest-to-host escape in VMware ESX (and the ESX component of Cloud Foundation, vSphere Foundation, and Telco Cloud Platform) lets an attacker with administrative privileges inside a virtual machine execute code on the underlying hypervisor host via an out-of-bounds write in the VMXNET3 virtual network adapter. Only VMs configured with the VMXNET3 adapter are affected; other virtual NIC types are not. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and it is not listed in CISA KEV, but the vendor-issued Broadcom/VMware advisory and the CVSS 9.3 score reflect a critical host-compromise impact.
Authentication bypass in VMware vCenter's Directory Service (vmdir) lets an attacker with network reachability to vCenter defeat the authentication algorithm and obtain unauthorized access without valid credentials. Because vCenter is the central management plane for vSphere environments, this exposes control over the entire virtual estate; the flaw is remotely exploitable with no privileges or user interaction (CVSS 9.8). At time of analysis there is no public exploit identified and it is not listed in CISA KEV, but the reporting vendor (VMware/Broadcom) rates it critical.
Remote code execution in VMware vCenter Server (and bundled distributions including Cloud Foundation, vSphere Foundation, Telco Cloud Infrastructure, and Telco Cloud Platform) arises from a directory traversal flaw in the Syslog server component, enabling any actor with network reach to vCenter to run arbitrary code. The CVSS 9.8 vector indicates unauthenticated, low-complexity network exploitation with full confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, and it is not yet listed in CISA KEV, but the vCenter management plane's central role makes this a top-priority patch.
Directory traversal in VMware Avi Load Balancer (formerly Avi Networks NSX Advanced Load Balancer) lets authenticated network users bypass file path validation to reach files outside intended directories. Rated CVSS 8.8, the flaw is exploitable remotely by any authenticated user (PR:L) and the vendor scores full high confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact, implying potential arbitrary file read and/or write on the appliance. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and it is not listed in CISA KEV.
Privilege escalation in VMware Avi Load Balancer exposes authenticated, network-accessible users to remote code execution across a wide version range spanning 22.1.x through 32.1.x. The CVSS 8.8 rating reflects low-complexity, low-privilege network exploitation yielding full confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact on affected systems. No public exploit code has been identified and the vulnerability is absent from CISA KEV; EPSS at 0.39% (31st percentile) confirms limited active exploitation pressure at time of analysis.
Remote code execution in VMware Avi Load Balancer exposes organizations running versions from 22.1.1 through 32.1.1 to arbitrary code injection by low-privileged authenticated users with network access. The flaw is classified as CWE-94 code injection, meaning attacker-supplied input reaches an execution context without adequate sanitization. Broadcom has released patches across all affected branches; no public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, and the EPSS score of 0.68% (48th percentile) reflects modest current exploitation probability despite the high CVSS 8.8 rating.
Local privilege escalation in VMware (Broadcom) Avi Load Balancer allows a user who already has local access to the appliance to elevate to root and run arbitrary code. It affects the 22.1.x, 30.x, 31.x and 32.1.x release lines, is CVSS 7.8, and was reported by the vendor. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and it is not listed in CISA KEV.
Remote code execution in VMware Avi Load Balancer exposes the Avi Control Plane to arbitrary code execution by any low-privileged, network-connected user, stemming from a code injection flaw (CWE-94) in the controller. Multiple major version branches from 22.1.1 through 32.1.1 are confirmed affected, with vendor-released patches available across all branches. No public exploit code or CISA KEV listing has been identified at time of analysis, though the CVSS 8.8 rating and full high-impact triad (C:H/I:H/A:H) make this a high-priority patch target for any deployment where the control plane is network-reachable.
Authorization bypass in VMware Avi Load Balancer (branches 22.1.x, 30.x, 31.x, and 32.1.1) allows a network-based actor holding low-privilege credentials to reach a limited subset of the Avi Control Plane without proper authorization. Rated CVSS 8.3 by VMware/Broadcom with CWE-863 (Incorrect Authorization), the flaw exposes control-plane functionality that should be gated behind higher authorization. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and no CISA KEV listing, so exploitation is currently theoretical rather than observed.
Authentication bypass in VMware Avi Load Balancer (versions 22.1.1-22.1.7, 30.1.1-30.2.6, and 31.1.1-31.2.2) lets a network-adjacent attacker circumvent the login mechanism and reach the Avi Controller control plane. Reported by VMware/Broadcom, it carries a CVSS 9.8 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N) reflecting full unauthenticated compromise of confidentiality, integrity and availability. No public exploit is identified at time of analysis and it is not on the CISA KEV list, but the flaw class (CWE-287) and network-reachable admin plane make it a high-priority patch.
Credential interception in kubev2v assisted-migration-agent allows network-positioned attackers to harvest vCenter administrator credentials because the agent's vCenter client establishes TLS connections with certificate verification effectively disabled by default. The flaw, reported by Red Hat and tracked as EUVD-2026-36032, has no public exploit identified at time of analysis and an EPSS score of 0.01% (percentile 1%), but successful MITM exploitation yields full administrative access to the targeted vCenter.
Authentication bypass via X.509 certificate impersonation in Spring Security affects versions 5.7.0-5.7.24, 5.8.0-5.8.26, 6.3.0-6.3.17, 6.4.0-6.4.17, and 6.5.0-6.5.10, where the SubjectDnX509PrincipalExtractor mishandles malformed Common Name (CN) values and resolves the principal to the wrong identity. An attacker holding a carefully crafted client certificate can authenticate as a different legitimate user, gaining their privileges. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, and the EPSS score of 0.02% (4th percentile) reflects no observed exploitation activity.
Insecure deserialization in Spring for Apache Pulsar's JsonPulsarHeaderMapper allows remote attackers to bypass trusted-package controls and potentially trigger arbitrary Java object instantiation through Pulsar message headers. The flaw stems from a prefix-based package match plus an unsafe empty-allow-list default, affecting versions 1.1.0-1.1.17, 1.2.0-1.2.17, and 2.0.0-2.0.5. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, but the CVSS 8.1 rating and CWE-502 classification place this firmly in the high-impact Java deserialization category that has historically yielded remote code execution.
Unsafe deserialization in Spring for Apache Kafka (versions 2.8.0-4.0.5 across multiple branches) allows a malicious Kafka producer to send crafted message headers that cause downstream consumers to instantiate arbitrary JDK types via Jackson. The flaw stems from a prefix-based trusted-packages check in JsonKafkaHeaderMapper and the deprecated DefaultKafkaHeaderMapper, which silently extends trust to every subpackage. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, but the bug class (CWE-502 with Jackson default typing) has a long history of leading to remote code execution in Spring/Java ecosystems.
Server-Side Expression Language (SpEL) injection in Spring Data REST allows authenticated remote attackers to execute arbitrary expressions by sending JSON Patch requests targeting Map-typed entity properties. Affected versions span 3.7.0 through 5.0.5, and successful exploitation yields high confidentiality and integrity impact (CVSS 8.1). No public exploit identified at time of analysis, but the low attack complexity and network reachability make this a credible threat to any exposed REST repository accepting application/json-patch+json.
Authorization bypass in Spring Data REST's JSON Patch handler allows remote unauthenticated attackers to modify protected entity fields by routing writes through intermediate path segments of a multi-segment JSON Pointer. The flaw affects Spring Data REST 3.7.x through 5.0.5 and carries a CVSS 7.5 (high) integrity-only impact; no public exploit has been identified at time of analysis and it is not listed in CISA KEV.
Remote code execution risk in Spring Data MongoDB arises from a SpEL expression injection flaw (CWE-917) triggered during parameter binding for repository methods annotated with @Query that use a capture-all placeholder. With CVSS 8.1 (AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N) and no public exploit identified at time of analysis, unauthenticated attackers who can influence query parameters reaching such a method could execute arbitrary SpEL expressions on the server.
Insecure deserialization in Spring Security 7.0.0 through 7.0.5 allows an attacker with write access to the saml2_asserting_party_metadata database table to store malicious serialized Java payloads in the verification_credentials or encryption_credentials columns, leading to code execution when the JdbcAssertingPartyMetadataRepository deserializes them. The flaw affects deployments using the JDBC-backed SAML 2.0 asserting-party metadata repository introduced in the Spring Security 7.x line. No public exploit identified at time of analysis and EPSS is very low (0.01%), but CVSS rates impact as High due to full confidentiality, integrity, and availability loss on the application.
Denial of service in Spring Security's SAML 2.0 service provider module allows remote unauthenticated attackers to exhaust application memory by submitting a maliciously compressed SAML payload over the REDIRECT binding. The flaw stems from an unbounded inflater that decompresses attacker-controlled data without size limits, enabling a classic decompression-bomb attack against any Spring application using SAML Login or Logout. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, but the network-reachable, no-authentication CVSS profile (7.5 High) makes this a near-term patching priority for SAML-enabled deployments.
Stored cross-site scripting in VMware Cloud Foundation Operations (formerly Aria Operations) allows authenticated users with policy, view, or text-widget creation privileges to inject malicious scripts that execute in other users' browsers, including administrators. Affected products include VCF Operations 5.x through 9.1.x, VMware Aria Operations 8.18.x, and VMware Telco Cloud Platform 5.x. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, and the issue is not listed in CISA KEV.
Local privilege escalation in VMware Fusion allows authenticated users with non-administrative privileges to gain root access by exploiting a TOCTOU race condition in a SETUID binary. The vulnerability requires local access and low attack complexity (CVSS:3.1 AV:L/AC:L/PR:L), enabling complete system compromise on macOS hosts running affected Fusion versions. EPSS and KEV status data not available; exploitation requires existing local user access but can bypass all privilege boundaries once triggered.
Local privilege-driven data corruption in the Intel Data Center Graphics Driver for VMware ESXi before version 2.0.2 allows a privileged local adversary to trigger an out-of-bounds write (CWE-787) in a Ring 1 device driver, causing denial of service and integrity loss. The flaw affects the vulnerable system's integrity and availability (both High) with no confidentiality impact, and carries a CVSS 4.0 base score of 8.3. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, and the EPSS probability is negligible at 0.01%.
Local privilege escalation in the Intel Data Center Graphics Driver for VMware ESXi before version 2.0.2 lets a privileged local user trigger a Ring 1 device-driver buffer overflow to execute arbitrary code and take total control of the host. The flaw carries a CVSS 4.0 base score of 9.3 with high confidentiality, integrity and availability impact on both the vulnerable and subsequent systems. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, and the EPSS score is negligible at 0.01% (3rd percentile), consistent with the SSVC verdict of no known exploitation.
Local privilege-abusing denial of service and information disclosure in the Intel Data Center Graphics Driver for VMware ESXi before version 2.0.2 lets a privileged local user trigger an out-of-bounds read (CWE-125) in the Ring 1 device-driver layer, potentially crashing the host and exposing adjacent memory. The flaw carries a CVSS 4.0 base score of 8.3 driven by high confidentiality and availability impact plus a scope change into subsequent systems. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, EPSS is negligible (0.01%), and CISA SSVC rates exploitation as 'none' and non-automatable.
Conversation memory poisoning in VMware Spring AI allows remote unauthenticated attackers to inject malicious input that persists across conversation turns and manipulates AI model behavior. The vulnerability achieves high integrity impact (CVSS 8.2) through stored prompt injection, enabling attackers to alter model responses, extract sensitive context, or bypass application logic without authentication. No active exploitation confirmed at time of analysis, but the network-accessible attack surface and low complexity make this a priority for applications processing user-generated conversational input.
Remote unauthenticated attackers can access confidential data from other users' chat sessions in Spring AI applications due to insecure default configuration in the chat memory component. The vulnerability allows network-based exploitation with no authentication required (CVSS:3.1 AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N) and impacts confidentiality only (C:H/I:N/A:N), enabling cross-user data leakage in multi-tenant AI chat implementations. Reported by VMware, affecting Java-based Spring AI deployments where developers have not explicitly configured chat memory isolation.
SQL injection in Spring AI's CosmosDBVectorStore component (versions 1.0.0-1.0.5 and 1.1.0-1.1.4) enables authenticated remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL queries through malicious document IDs, potentially achieving full database compromise including data exfiltration, modification, and denial of service. VMware has released patches in versions 1.0.6 and 1.1.5. CVSS score of 8.8 reflects high impact across confidentiality, integrity, and availability, though exploitation requires low-privilege authenticated access to the vector store API.
Authentication bypass in Spring Boot 4.0.0-4.0.5 allows remote unauthenticated attackers to access all application endpoints, bypassing default web security filters entirely. Affects servlet-based applications using spring-boot-actuator-autoconfigure without custom Spring Security configuration and without spring-boot-health dependency. Vendor patch released (upgrade to 4.0.6+). No public exploit code identified at time of analysis, but CVSS 9.1 with network attack vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N) indicates trivial exploitation once configuration prerequisites are met.
Predictable secret generation in Spring Boot's random value property source allows remote, unauthenticated attackers to obtain potentially sensitive values. Affected versions include Spring Boot 4.0.0 to 4.0.5, 3.5.x, 3.4.x, 3.3.x, and 2.7.x before the respective patch releases. The vulnerability has a CVSS score of 7.5 (High) but no active exploitation has been confirmed, and EPSS suggests a very low likelihood of exploitation.
Spring Boot's Cassandra auto-configuration fails to verify hostnames during SSL/TLS connection establishment to Cassandra servers, enabling man-in-the-middle attackers on the local network to intercept credentials and data by presenting a valid certificate for any domain. Affects Spring Boot 2.7.0-4.0.5; vendor-released patches available for all supported versions (4.0.6, 3.5.14, 3.4.16, 3.3.19, 2.7.33). No public exploit code identified at time of analysis.
Local privilege escalation and session hijacking in Spring Boot allows attackers with local access to hijack authenticated sessions or execute arbitrary code by taking control of the ApplicationTemp directory. The vulnerability affects Spring Boot versions 2.7.0 through 4.0.5 when server.servlet.session.persistent is enabled, requiring attack persistence across application restarts.
