Summary
Toshiaki Maki discovered that Spring Framework incorrectly handled certain
XML files. A remote attacker could exploit this with a crafted XML file to
cause a denial of service. (CVE-2015-3192)
Alvaro Muñoz discovered that Spring Framework incorrectly handled certain
URLs. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a reflected
file download. (CVE-2015-5211)
It was discovered that Spring Framework did not properly sanitize path
inputs. An attacker could possibly use this issue to read arbitrary files,
resulting in a directory traversal attack (CVE-2016-9878)
It was discovered that Spring Framework incorrectly handled XML documents.
An attacker could possibly use this issue to generate an XML external
entity attack, resulting in a denial of service, disclosure of information
or other unspecified impact. This issue only affected Ubuntu 14.04 ESM.

Vulnerabilities 6
-
High 8.8
Improper Restriction of XML External Entity Reference in Spring Framework
When processing user provided XML documents, the Spring Framework 4.0.0 to 4.0.4, 3.0.0 to 3.2.8, and possibly earlier unsupported versions did not disable by default the resolution of URI references in a DTD declaration. This enabled an XXE attack.
-
High 8.6
Files or Directories Accessible to External Parties in org.springframework:spring-core
Under some situations, the Spring Framework 4.2.0 to 4.2.1, 4.0.0 to 4.1.7, 3.2.0 to 3.2.14 and older unsupported versions is vulnerable to a Reflected File Download (RFD) attack. The attack involves a malicious user crafting a URL with a batch script extensi…

High 7.5
Pivotal Spring Framework Paths provided to the ResourceServlet were not properly sanitized
An issue was discovered in Pivotal Spring Framework before 3.2.18, 4.2.x before 4.2.9, and 4.3.x before 4.3.5. Paths provided to the ResourceServlet were not properly sanitized and as a result exposed to directory traversal attacks.
-
Medium 5.5
Pivotal Spring Framework DoS Attack with XML Input
Pivotal Spring Framework before 3.2.14 and 4.x before 4.1.7 do not properly process inline DTD declarations when DTD is not entirely disabled, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption and out-of-memory errors) via a craft…

Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory in Spring Framework
Directory traversal vulnerability in Pivotal Spring Framework 3.x before 3.2.9 and 4.0 before 4.0.5 allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files via a crafted URL.

Medium —CVE-2014-3625 Public exploit
Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory in Spring Framework
Directory traversal vulnerability in Pivotal Spring Framework 3.0.4 through 3.2.x before 3.2.12, 4.0.x before 4.0.8, and 4.1.x before 4.1.2 allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files via unspecified vectors, related to static resource handling.
