The Spring Boot language server logs the raw value of the httpsproxy/HTTPSPROXY/httpproxy/HTTPPROXY environment variable at INFO level whenever it creates an outbound HTTP client and no explicit http.proxy workspace setting is configured. Corporate proxy URLs frequently embed Basic-auth credentials in the form http://user:pass@proxy:8080, and the language server writes this value to its log file without any redaction. Since language server log files are often attached to bug reports or are readable by other local users/processes, this can result in disclosure of proxy credentials. Affected Spring Products and Versions: Spring Tools for Eclipse: 5.2.0 and earlier Spring Tools for VSCode / Cursor / Theia: 2.2.0 and earlier
A zip-slip path traversal vulnerability in Spring Data Geode's import snapshot functionality allows attackers to write files outside the intended extraction directory. This vulnerability appears to be susceptible on Windows OS only.

The Spring Security annotation detection mechanism may not correctly resolve annotations on methods within type hierarchies with a parameterized super type with unbounded generics. This can be an issue when using @PreAuthorize and other method security annotations, resulting in an authorization bypass.
Your application may be affected by this if you are using Spring Security's @EnableMethodSecurity feature.
You are not affected by this if you are not using @EnableMethodSecurity or if you do not use security annotations on methods in generic superclasses or generic interfaces.

Cloud Foundry routing release versions from v0.163.0 to v0.283.0 are vulnerable to a DOS attack. An unauthenticated attacker can use this vulnerability to force route pruning and therefore degrade the service availability of the Cloud Foundry deployment.
A flaw was found in the Reactor Netty HTTP Server, which may log request headers in some cases of invalid HTTP requests. This could allow an attacker to access privileged information when WARN level logging is enabled.
In Reactor Netty HTTP Server, versions 1.1.x prior to 1.1.13 and versions 1.0.x prior to 1.0.39, a malicious user can send a request using a specially crafted URL that can lead to a directory traversal attack.
Specifically, an application is vulnerable if Reactor Netty HTTP Server is configured to serve static resources.
In Reactor Netty HTTP Server, versions 1.1.x prior to 1.1.13 and versions 1.0.x prior to 1.0.39, it is possible for a user to provide specially crafted HTTP requests that may cause a denial-of-service (DoS) condition.
Specifically, an application is vulnerable if Reactor Netty HTTP Server built-in integration with Micrometer is enabled.
Vulnerability in Cloud Foundry Notifications, Cloud Foundry SMB-volume release, Cloud FOundry cf-nfs-volume release.This issue affects Notifications: All versions prior to 63; SMB-volume release: All versions prior to 3.1.19; cf-nfs-volume release: 5.0.X versions prior to 5.0.27, 7.1.X versions prior to 7.1.19.
<Issue Description> Spring Security OAuth versions 2.5.x prior to 2.5.2 and older unsupported versions are susceptible to a Denial-of-Service (DoS) attack via the initiation of the Authorization Request in an OAuth 2.0 Client application. A malicious user or attacker can send multiple requests initiating the Authorization Request for the Authorization Code Grant, which has the potential of exhausting system resources using a single session. This vulnerability exposes OAuth 2.0 Client applications only.
CF CLI version prior to v6.45.0 (bosh release version 1.16.0) writes the client id and secret to its config file when the user authenticates with --client-credentials flag. A local authenticated malicious user with access to the CF CLI config file can act as that client, who is the owner of the leaked credentials.
In Pivotal tc Server, 3.x versions prior to 3.2.19 and 4.x versions prior to 4.0.10, and Pivotal tc Runtimes, 7.x versions prior to 7.0.99.B, 8.x versions prior to 8.5.47.A, and 9.x versions prior to 9.0.27.A, when a tc Runtime instance is configured with the JMX Socket Listener, a local attacker without access to the tc Runtime process or configuration files is able to manipulate the RMI registry to perform a man-in-the-middle attack to capture user names and passwords used to access the JMX interface. The attacker can then use these credentials to access the JMX interface and gain complete control over the tc Runtime instance.
Pivotal Application Manager, versions 666.0.x prior to 666.0.36, versions 667.0.x prior to 667.0.22, versions 668.0.x prior to 668.0.21, versions 669.0.x prior to 669.0.13, and versions 670.0.x prior to 670.0.7, contain a vulnerability where a remote authenticated user can create an app with a name such that a csv program can interpret into a formula and gets executed. The malicious user can possibly gain access to a usage report that requires a higher privilege.
Pivotal Reactor Netty, versions prior to 0.8.11, passes headers through redirects, including authorization ones. A remote unauthenticated malicious user may gain access to credentials for a different server than they have access to.
Cloud Foundry Container Runtime (kubo-release), versions prior to 0.14.0, may leak UAA and vCenter credentials to application logs. A malicious user with the ability to read the application logs could use these credentials to escalate privileges.
