spring-data-commons is vulnerable to Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling
75
High Risk
This Affects:
spring-data-commonsTL;DR
Spring Data's internal property-lookup cache accepts and permanently retains attacker-supplied strings as cache keys, allowing heap exhaustion through repeated requests. Affected applications are those using Spring Data features that forward HTTP-supplied strings to PropertyPath.from without prior filtering, in particular Querydsl web bindings (via QuerydslPredicateArgumentResolver) with the default permit-all visibility, and @ProjectedPayload form-parameter binding (via MapDataBinder).
Who does this affect?
You are affected if you are using a version that falls within the vulnerable range.
