Description

Spring Data Commons, versions 1.13 prior to 1.13.12 and 2.0 prior to 2.0.7, used in combination with XMLBeam 1.4.14 or earlier versions, contains a property binder vulnerability caused by improper restriction of XML external entity references as underlying library XMLBeam does not restrict external reference expansion. An unauthenticated remote malicious user can supply specially crafted request parameters against Spring Data's projection-based request payload binding to access arbitrary files on the system.

Affected

Our own answer: ranges merged, affected separated from platform-only, with confidence and review flags.

1.13 ≤ v ≤ 1.13.112.0 ≤ v ≤ 2.0.6
3.0 ≤ v ≤ 3.0.6
2.6 < v ≤ 2.6.11
v ≤ 1.4.14
v < 1.13.12
Affected range stops below 1.13.12, so it looks safe — our inference, not a vendor statement
