CVE-2014-0113: Apache Struts

High severity, CVSS 7.5. EPSS: 78.3% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

CookieInterceptor in Apache Struts before 2.3.20, when a wildcard cookiesName value is used, does not properly restrict access to the getClass method, which allows remote attackers to "manipulate" the ClassLoader and execute arbitrary code via a crafted request. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2014-0094.

Affected products

• Apache Struts: from 2.0.0, before 2.3.16.2 (fixed in 2.3.16.2)
