Whiteboard:
Fixed In Version:		Doc Type:	If docs needed, set a value
Doc Text:	A flaw was found in Apache Struts frameworks. When forced, struts2 performs double evaluation of attributes' values assigned to certain tags attributes such as ID so it is possible to pass a value that will be evaluated again when a tag's attributes will be rendered. With a carefully crafted request, this can lead to Remote Code Execution (RCE). The largest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality and integrity as well as system availability.

Description Guilherme de Almeida Suckevicz 2020-08-18 13:22:27 UTC

The Apache Struts frameworks, when forced, performs double evaluation of attributes' values assigned to certain tags attributes such as id so it is possible to pass in a value that will be evaluated again when a tag's attributes will be rendered. With a carefully crafted request, this can lead to Remote Code Execution (RCE).
