medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 472841

Description

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

- Several components in Spring Security compare security-sensitive values using standard string equality
(String.equals()) rather than a constant-time comparison. Because String.equals() returns as soon as it
finds a differing character, the time taken to reject an incorrect value is proportional to the number of
leading characters that match the expected value. Spring Security 7.1.0 Spring Security 7.0.0 - 7.0.6
Spring Security 6.5.0 - 6.5.11 Spring Security 6.4.0 - 6.4.18 Spring Security 5.8.0 - 5.8.27 Spring
Security 5.7.0 - 5.7.25 (CVE-2026-59276)

Solution

Update the org.springframework.security:spring-security-core library and its related packages to version 6.5.10+echo.1 or later.
