CVE-2023-34478
Apache Shiro, before 1.12.0 or 2.0.0-alpha-3, may be susceptible to a path traversal attack that results in an authentication bypass when used together with APIs or other web frameworks that route requests based on non-normalized requests.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (2.07%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
