When Spring MVC or Spring WebFlux server application (server A) receives input from a remote client, and then uses that input to make a multipart request to another server (server B), it can be exposed to an attack, where an extra multipart is inserted in the content of the request from server A, causing server B to use the wrong value for a part it expects. This could to lead privilege escalation, for example, if the part content represents a username or user roles.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","score":7.5},"cwes":[],"references":["http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/security-advisory/cpujul2018-4258247.html","http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/security-advisory/cpuoct2018-4428296.html","http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/103697","https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2018:1320","https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2018:2669"],"products":["oracle:application_testing_suite","oracle:big_data_discovery","oracle:communications_converged_application_server","oracle:communications_diameter_signaling_router","oracle:communications_performance_intelligence_center","oracle:communications_services_gatekeeper","oracle:enterprise_manager_ops_center","oracle:goldengate_for_big_data","oracle:health_sciences_information_manager","oracle:healthcare_master_person_index","oracle:insurance_calculation_engine","oracle:insurance_rules_palette","oracle:primavera_gateway","oracle:retail_back_office","oracle:retail_central_office","oracle:retail_customer_insights","oracle:retail_integration_bus","oracle:retail_open_commerce_platform","oracle:retail_order_broker","oracle:retail_point-of-sale","oracle:retail_predictive_application_server","oracle:retail_returns_management","oracle:service_architecture_leveraging_tuxedo","oracle:tape_library_acsls","vmware:spring_framework"],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T20:49:59.483420567+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2018-1272","score":0.03065,"percentile":0.87624,"date":"2026-10-31"},"kev":null,"osv":[{"id":"GHSA-4487-x383-qpph","url":"https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-4487-x383-qpph","summary":"Possible privilege escalation in org.springframework:spring-core","modified":"2024-12-05T05:30:27.932883Z","packages":[{"ecosystem":"Maven","name":"org.springframework:spring-core","purl":"pkg:maven/org.springframework/spring-core","ranges":["<4.3.15"],"fixed":["4.3.15"]},{"ecosystem":"Maven","name":"org.springframework:spring-core","purl":"pkg:maven/org.springframework/spring-core","ranges":[">=5.0.0 <5.0.5"],"fixed":["5.0.5"]}]}],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
