An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2023-34053 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- org.springframework:spring-webmvc (Maven): affected from 6.0.0; fixed in 6.0.14\n- org.springframework:spring-webmvc (Maven): affected from 6.0.0; fixed in 6.0.14\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-2023-34053/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-34053/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-34053","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-34053/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-34053","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-v94h-hvhg-mf9h","UBUNTU-CVE-2023-34053"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"Java web framework","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Crafted HTTP requests can cause denial of service in Spring MVC or WebFlux applications with specific observation configurations.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"vmware","cpe":[{"product":"spring_framework","vendor":"vmware"}],"cvss":{"score":5.3,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[],"description":"In Spring Framework versions 6.0.0 - 6.0.13, it is possible for a user to provide specially crafted HTTP requests that may cause a denial-of-service (DoS) condition.\n\nSpecifically, an application is vulnerable when all of the following are true:\n\n  *  the application uses Spring MVC or Spring WebFlux\n  *  io.micrometer:micrometer-core is on the classpath\n  *  an ObservationRegistry is configured in the application to record observations\n\nTypically, Spring Boot applications need the org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-actuator dependency to meet all conditions.","ecosystems":["Maven"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Spring Framework server Web Observations DoS Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2023-34053","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"Maven","product":"vmware:spring_framework","products":["vmware:spring_framework"],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2023"},"n_packages":2,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Reactor Netty HTTP Server Metrics DoS Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2023-34054"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"Maven","fixed":["6.0.14"],"introduced":["6.0.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"org.springframework:spring-webmvc","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-v94h-hvhg-mf9h"},{"ecosystem":"Maven","fixed":["6.0.14"],"introduced":["6.0.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"org.springframework:spring-webmvc","purl":"pkg:maven/org.springframework/spring-webmvc","source":"GHSA-v94h-hvhg-mf9h"}],"prev":{"headline":"Deserialization in VMware Aria Operations for Logs","id":"CVE-2023-34052"},"products":["Spring Framework"],"published":"2023-11-28","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Spring Framework Improper Path Limitation in XsltView","id":"CVE-2026-47884","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-08-27"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Spring Framework Server Sent Event stream corruption while rendering fragments","id":"CVE-2026-47890","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-08-27"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Spring Framework maxInMemorySize Bypassed in Jaxb2Decoder","id":"CVE-2026-47891","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-08-27"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Spring Framework Header Predicate Bypass in WebFlux Functional Endpoints","id":"CVE-2026-47892","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-08-27"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Server Sent Event stream corruption in Spring MVC functional web framework","id":"CVE-2026-59313","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-08-27"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Pivotal Spring Framework contains unsafe Java deserialization methods","id":"CVE-2016-1000027","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-01-02"},{"cvss_score":9.1,"headline":"Spring Framework Safety Guard Bypass via SpEL Expression Compilation","id":"CVE-2026-59283","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-08-27"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"GitHub Advisory Database","prefix":"GHSA"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-02-13","vendors":["Spring"]},"summary":"Crafted HTTP requests can cause denial of service in Spring MVC or WebFlux applications with specific observation configurations.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-34053/"}
