CVE-2018-1271

spring-framework: Directory traversal vulnerability with static resources on Windows filesystems

Published Apr 6, 2018 CVSS 3.1 · 5.9 Medium EPSS 30.3% KEV · Not listed
Description
Spring Framework, versions 5.0 prior to 5.0.5 and versions 4.3 prior to 4.3.15 and older unsupported versions, allow applications to configure Spring MVC to serve static resources (e.g. CSS, JS, images). When static resources are served from a file system on Windows (as opposed to the classpath, or the ServletContext), a malicious user can send a request using a specially crafted URL that can lead a directory traversal attack.
