An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: Yes. Attackers have exploited CVE-2018-1273 in the wild since at least 25 Mar 2022, including in ransomware campaigns.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- org.springframework.data:spring-data-commons (Maven): affected from 1.13.0; fixed in 1.13.11\n- org.springframework.data:spring-data-commons (Maven): affected from 1.13.0; fixed in 1.13.11\n- org.springframework.data:spring-data-commons (Maven): affected from 2.0.0; fixed in 2.0.6\n- org.springframework.data:spring-data-commons (Maven): affected from 2.0.0; fixed in 2.0.6\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-1273/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-1273/index.md)","id":"CVE-2018-1273","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-1273/index.md","name":"CVE-2018-1273","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-4fq3-mr56-cg6r"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Spring Data Commons","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can achieve remote code execution via crafted request parameters in Spring Data Commons property binding.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"code_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"dell","cpe":[{"product":"ignite","vendor":"apache"},{"product":"spring_data_commons","vendor":"broadcom"},{"product":"financial_services_crime_and_compliance_management_studio","vendor":"oracle"},{"product":"spring_data_rest","vendor":"pivotal_software"},{"product":"spring_data_rest","vendor":"vmware"}],"cvss":{"score":9.8,"severity":"critical","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-94","name":"Improper Control of Generation of Code"}],"description":"Spring Data Commons, versions prior to 1.13 to 1.13.10, 2.0 to 2.0.5, and older unsupported versions, contain a property binder vulnerability caused by improper neutralization of special elements.
