- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Debian LTS Advisory DLA-4229-1 [email protected] https://www.debian.org/lts/security/ Abhijith PA June 25, 2025 https://wiki.debian.org/LTS
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------

Package : commons-beanutils Version : 1.9.4-1+deb11u1 CVE ID : CVE-2025-48734

commons-beanutils, utility for manipulating Java beans have an improper Access Control vulnerability. A special BeanIntrospector class was added in version 1.9.2. This can be used to stop attackers from using the declared class property of Java enum objects to get access to the classloader. However this protection was not enabled by default. PropertyUtilsBean (and consequently BeanUtilsBean) now disallows declared class level property access by default.

For Debian 11 bullseye, this problem has been fixed in version 1.9.4-1+deb11u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your commons-beanutils packages.

For the detailed security status of commons-beanutils please refer to its security tracker page at:
