CVE-2020-5421
Description
In Spring Framework, the protections against RFD attacks from CVE-2015-5211 may be bypassed depending on the browser used through the use of a jsessionid path parameter.
Statement
This issue does not affect the version of SpringFramework (embedded in rhvm-dependencies) shipped with Red Hat Virtualization, as it does not provide support for spring-web.
In Red Hat Gluster Storage 3, SpringFramework (embedded in rhvm-dependencies) was shipped as a part of Red Hat Gluster Storage Console that is no longer supported for use with Red Hat Gluster Storage 3.5. However, spring-web is not included in the shipped version of SpringFramework.
Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) Score Details
Info alert:Important note
CVSS scores for open source components depend on vendor-specific factors (e.g. version or build chain). Therefore, Red Hat's score and impact rating can be different from NVD and other vendors. Red Hat remains the authoritative CVE Naming Authority (CNA) source for its products and services (see Red Hat classifications).
