high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 423462

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

- Spring Framework, versions 5.0.x prior to 5.0.7 and 4.3.x prior to 4.3.18 and older unsupported versions,
allows web applications to enable cross-domain requests via JSONP (JSON with Padding) through
AbstractJsonpResponseBodyAdvice for REST controllers and MappingJackson2JsonView for browser requests.
Both are not enabled by default in Spring Framework nor Spring Boot, however, when MappingJackson2JsonView
is configured in an application, JSONP support is automatically ready to use through the "jsonp" and
"callback" JSONP parameters, enabling cross-domain requests. (CVE-2018-11040)
