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.
