Security Bulletin
This security bulletin contains information about 3 vulnerabilities.
1) Unsafe reflection
EUVDB-ID: #VU65653
Risk: Medium
CVSSv4.0: 6.9 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:L/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:A/U:Green]
CVE-ID: CVE-2014-0114
CWE-ID:
CWE-470 - Use of Externally-Controlled Input to Select Classes or Code ('Unsafe Reflection')
Exploit availability: Yes
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to Apache Commons BeanUtils does not suppress the class property. A remote unauthenticated attacker can manipulate the ClassLoader and execute arbitrary code via the class parameter
MitigationUpdate the affected package apache-commons-beanutils to the latest version.

2) Deserialization of Untrusted Data
EUVDB-ID: #VU47859
Risk: High
CVSSv4.0: 9.3 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:A/U:Amber]
CVE-ID: CVE-2015-4852
CWE-ID:
CWE-502 - Deserialization of Untrusted Data
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to insecure input validation when processing serialized data in the WLS Security component. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
MitigationUpdate the affected package apache-commons-beanutils to the latest version.

3) Improper access control
EUVDB-ID: #VU111165
Risk: Medium
CVSSv4.0: 1.7 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:L/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green]
CVE-ID: CVE-2025-48734
CWE-ID:
CWE-284 - Improper Access Control
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain unauthorized access to otherwise restricted functionality.
The vulnerability exists due to improper access restrictions to enum properties. If an application using Commons BeanUtils passes property paths from an external source directly to the getProperty() method of PropertyUtilsBean, an attacker can access the enum’s class loader via the “declaredClass” property available on all Java “enum” objects. Accessing the enum’s “declaredClass” allows remote attackers to access the ClassLoader and execute arbitrary code. The same issue exists with PropertyUtilsBean.getNestedProperty().
MitigationUpdate the affected package apache-commons-beanutils to the latest version.
