melloware opened a new pull request #7: BEANUTILS-520: Mitigate CVE-2014-0114 by enabling SuppressPropertiesB…
URL: https://github.com/apache/commons-beanutils/pull/7
 
 
   Fixes CVE-2014-0114: https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2014-0114
   
   This patch by default enables the `SuppressPropertiesBeanIntrospector.SUPPRESS_CLASS`. So you are secure by default.
   
   To opt-out and allow access to the "class" property making it work like BeanUtils 1.9.3 or lower simply add this one line of code to remove the feature.
   
   ```java
   final BeanUtilsBean bub = new BeanUtilsBean();    bub.getPropertyUtils().removeBeanIntrospector(SuppressPropertiesBeanIntrospector.SUPPRESS_CLASS);
   ```
   
   This makes the library more secure by default and but still allows backward compatibility.
