CVE-2022-42889: Apache commons_text(CVE-2022-42889) and commons_configuration (CVE-2022-33980) vulnerability
First published: Thu Oct 13 2022(Updated: )
A flaw was found in Apache Commons Text packages 1.5 through 1.9. The affected versions allow an attacker to benefit from a variable interpolation process contained in Apache Commons Text, which can cause properties to be dynamically defined. Server applications are vulnerable to remote code execution (RCE) and unintentional contact with untrusted remote servers.
