Improper Handling of Case Sensitivity SNYK-JAVA-ORGSPRINGFRAMEWORK-8230368

[github-actions]

Overview

org.springframework:spring-webmvc is a package that provides Model-View-Controller (MVC) architecture and ready components that can be used to develop flexible and loosely coupled web applications.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Improper Handling of Case Sensitivity due to String.toLowerCase() having some Locale dependent exceptions that could potentially result in fields not protected as expected.

Note:
The fix for CVE-2022-22968 made disallowedFields patterns in DataBinder case insensitive.

Remediation

Upgrade org.springframework:spring-webmvc to version 6.1.14 or higher.
