Spring Framework 6.2.x < 6.2.20 / 7.0.x < 7.0.8.1 Multiple Vulnerabilities

critical Nessus Plugin ID 341190

Synopsis

The Spring Framework install on the remote host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The version of Spring Framework installed on the remote host is 6.2.x prior to 6.2.20, or 7.0.x prior to 7.0.8.1. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

- UrlHandlerFilter can be vulnerable to an open redirect when configured with very broadly matching patterns. The issue applies to the filter variants in both Spring MVC and Spring WebFlux. (CVE-2026-47883)

- A WebFlux application running on the Jetty 12 Core reactive adapter serializes response cookies without the sameSite attribute. (CVE-2026-47889)

- Spring MVC and WebFlux applications are vulnerable to stream corruption when using Server-Sent Events (SSE) with view fragments. An attacker with control over data that will be streamed to other users might corrupt the stream of data sent to those users. (CVE-2026-47890)

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

Solution

Upgrade to Spring Framework version 6.2.20 / 7.0.8.1 / 7.0.9 or later. Note that some fixed releases are available to Enterprise Support customers only; refer to the vendor advisory for details.
