medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 414377

Description

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

- Spring Framework 3.0.0 through 3.0.5, Spring Security 3.0.0 through 3.0.5 and 2.0.0 through 2.0.6, and
possibly other versions deserialize objects from untrusted sources, which allows remote attackers to
bypass intended security restrictions and execute untrusted code by (1) serializing a java.lang.Proxy

deserialization of a DefaultListableBeanFactory instance to execute arbitrary commands via the
java.lang.Runtime class. (CVE-2011-2894)
