Apache Struts ActionForm ClassLoader Security Bypass Vulnerability

Publish date: July 21, 2015
  Severity: HIGH
  CVE Identifier: CVE-2014-0114
  Advisory Date: JUL 21, 2015

  DESCRIPTION

Apache Commons BeanUtils, as distributed in lib/commons-beanutils-1.8.0.jar in Apache Struts 1.x through 1.3.10 and in other products requiring commons-beanutils through 1.9.2, does not suppress the class property, which allows remote attackers to "manipulate" the ClassLoader and execute arbitrary code via the class parameter, as demonstrated by the passing of this parameter to the getClass method of the ActionForm object in Struts 1.
