Published Aug 26, 2026
·
Updated

Spring Integration's JSON to object conversion uses the jsonTypeId header to choose the deserialization target type, and resolves that header value to a class with ClassUtils.forName and no type/package allow-list. Spring Integration 7.1.0 Spring Integration 7.0.0 - 7.0.5 Spring Integration 6.5.0 - 6.5.10 Spring Integration 6.4.0 - 6.4.12 Spring Integration 5.5.21 and earlier

Frequently Asked Questions

1

What access does an attacker need to exploit this issue?

The attacker needs low-level privileges and network access, but no user interaction is required. Exploitation depends on being able to supply or influence a message carrying the json__TypeId__ header.

2

Which releases are affected?

Affected releases are Spring Integration 7.1.0, 7.0.0 through 7.0.5, 6.5.0 through 6.5.10, 6.4.0 through 6.4.12, and 5.5.21 and earlier.

3

How can I determine whether my deployment is exposed?

Check whether your application uses Spring Integration JSON-to-object conversion and accepts messages whose json__TypeId__ header can be influenced by a low-privileged network-accessible sender. The affected transformer resolves that header to a class without a type or package allow-list.
