8.8 highEPSS 8.1%

High (8.8). EPSS 8.1% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days. Fixed in org.apache.struts:struts2-core 2.3.29.

Apache Struts 2.x before 2.3.29 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a "%{}" sequence in a tag attribute, aka forced double OGNL evaluation. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2016-0785.
