KEVCRITICAL 9.8EPSS 97.0%

Does this matter?

Known to be exploited in the wild (CISA KEV, CISA remediation deadline 15 April 2022). Treat as an emergency change: patch or isolate now, then hunt for prior compromise.

Description

Spring Data Commons, versions prior to 1.13 to 1.13.10, 2.0 to 2.0.5, and older unsupported versions, contain a property binder vulnerability caused by improper neutralization of special elements. An unauthenticated remote malicious user (or attacker) can supply specially crafted request parameters against Spring Data REST backed HTTP resources or using Spring Data's projection-based request payload binding hat can lead to a remote code execution attack.
