Description Sandipan Roy 2022-05-18 05:45:03 UTC

In Spring Security versions 5.5.6 and 5.5.7 and older unsupported versions, RegexRequestMatcher can easily be misconfigured to be bypassed on some servlet containers.

Applications using RegexRequestMatcher with `.` in the regular expression are possibly vulnerable to an authorization bypass.
