Issue [CVE-2018-1270|http://web.nvd.nist.gov/view/vuln/detail?vulnId=CVE-2018-1270]
 
Source National Vulnerability Database
 
Severity
CVE CVSS 3.0: 9.8
CVE CVSS 2.0: 7.5
Sonatype CVSS 3.0: 9.8
 
Weakness
CVE CWE: [358|https://cwe.mitre.org/data/definitions/358.html]
 
Description from CVE
Spring Framework, versions 5.0 prior to 5.0.5 and versions 4.3 prior to 4.3.15 and older unsupported versions, allow applications to expose STOMP over WebSocket endpoints with a simple, in-memory STOMP broker through the spring-messaging module. A malicious user (or attacker) can craft a message to the broker that can lead to a remote code execution attack.
Explanation
The Spring Framework {{spring-messaging}} module is vulnerable to Remote Code Execution (RCE). The {{getMethods()}} method in the {{ReflectiveMethodResolver}} class, the {{canWrite}} method in the {{ReflectivePropertyAccessor}} class, and the {{filterSubscriptions()}} method in the {{DefaultSubscriptionRegistry}} class do not properly restrict SpEL expression evaluation. A remote attacker can exploit this vulnerability by crafting a request to an exposed STOMP endpoint and injecting a malicious payload into the {{selector}} header. The application would then execute the payload via a call to {{expression.getValue()}} whenever a new message is sent to the broker.
 
Detection
The application is vulnerable by using this component.
 
Recommendation
We recommend upgrading to a version of this component that is not vulnerable to this specific issue.
