Spring Framework 6.0.5 < 6.0.29 / 6.1.x < 6.1.21 / 6.2.x < 6.2.8 Reflected File Download (CVE-2025-41234)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 240742

Synopsis

The Spring Framework install on the remote host is affectec by a reflected file download vulnerability.

Description

The version of Spring Framework installed on the remote host is 6.0.5 prior to 6.0.29, 6.1.x prior to 6.1.21, or 6.2.x prior to 6.2.8. It is, therefore, affected by a reflected file download vulnerability:

 - In Spring Framework, versions 6.0.x as of 6.0.5, versions 6.1.x and 6.2.x, an application is vulnerable to a reflected file download (RFD) attack when it sets a 'Content-Disposition' header with a non-ASCII charset, where the filename attribute is derived from user-supplied input. (CVE-2025-41234)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to Spring Framework version 6.0.29, 6.1.21, or 6.2.8 or later.
