Update Spring WebMVC dependency: This change upgrades the Spring WebMVC dependency to version 5.3.39 to address security vulnerabilities across multiple severity levels, aligning with automated dependency management practices pom.xml#L1236.
Updated spring-webmvc dependency from 5.3.31 to 5.3.39 to address multiple security vulnerabilities pom.xml#L1233-L1236.
The update addresses critical, high, and medium severity issues which include GHSA advisories related to Spring Framework that may stem from improper input validation, potential access control issues or insecure API endpoints.
Justification
The dependency version was upgraded to patch known vulnerabilities. This is a direct security improvement.
These advisories often relate to potential security flaws within the Spring framework that can be exploited through various means, including improper input handling or exposure of sensitive information, potentially affecting access control and API security.
🟢 📝 INPUT_VALIDATION:High Impact Improvement Enhance input validation security by updating Spring MVC
The update to spring-webmvc version 5.3.39 includes fixes for vulnerabilities that may stem from improper input validation pom.xml#L1233-L1236.
Specific GHSA advisories like GHSA-4wrc-f8pq-fpqp and GHSA-2wrp-6fg6-hmc5 often relate to the framework's handling of user-supplied data, which can lead to injection attacks or unexpected behavior if not properly validated.
Justification
The upgrade addresses vulnerabilities that could be triggered by malformed or malicious input sent to the application's endpoints.
These fixes are crucial for preventing various injection attacks (e.g., command injection, potential XSS if relevant to the specific advisories) by ensuring all external data is processed securely.
The change is a dependency upgrade that inherently includes security patches for the spring-webmvc component.
🟢 🔌 API_ENDPOINT:High Impact Improvement Secure API endpoints by updating Spring MVC dependency
The upgrade of spring-webmvc to 5.3.39 enhances the security posture of the application's API endpoints pom.xml#L1233-L1236.
Vulnerabilities within the web framework can be exploited through these entry points, impacting request handling, data exposure, and authentication/authorization mechanisms.
Justification
spring-webmvc is a key component for defining and handling API endpoints in Spring applications.
Security fixes in this dependency directly translate to a more secure interface for external interactions with the application.
The upgrade mitigates risks associated with how requests are processed, which is fundamental to API endpoint security.
🟢 🔒 ACCESS_CONTROL:Medium Impact Improvement Strengthen access control by upgrading Spring MVC
The dependency update for spring-webmvc to version 5.3.39 includes fixes for vulnerabilities that could potentially impact access control mechanisms pom.xml#L1233-L1236.
Updating the Spring MVC framework addresses underlying security flaws that might have allowed for unauthorized access to resources or actions if not properly secured.
The framework handles request routing and authorization logic, so vulnerabilities here can directly affect who can access what.
The change is a dependency upgrade that bundles security patches from the Spring team.
