CVE-ID: CVE-2014-0114
CWE-ID:
CWE-470 - Use of Externally-Controlled Input to Select Classes or Code ('Unsafe Reflection')
Exploit availability: Yes
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to Apache Commons BeanUtils does not suppress the class property. A remote unauthenticated attacker can manipulate the ClassLoader and execute arbitrary code via the class parameter

2) Cross-site scripting
EUVDB-ID: #VU71647
Risk: Low
CVSSv4.0: 0 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear]
CVE-ID: CVE-2012-1007
CWE-ID:
CWE-79 - Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting')
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionVulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform Cross-site scripting attacks.
An input validation error exists in Apache Struts when processing the name parameter to struts-examples/upload/upload-submit.do, or the message parameter to struts-cookbook/processSimple.do or struts-cookbook/processDyna.do. A remote attacker can trick the victim to follow a specially crafted link and execute arbitrary HTML and script code in victim's browser in security context of vulnerable website.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker to steal potentially sensitive information, change appearance of the web page, perform phishing and drive-by-download attacks.
MitigationCybersecurity Help is currently unaware of any official solution to address this vulnerability..

3) Improper input validation
EUVDB-ID: #VU2803
Risk: Medium
CVSSv4.0: 1.2 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:L/VI:L/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green]
CVE-ID: CVE-2016-1182
CWE-ID:
CWE-20 - Improper input validation
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform cross-site scripting attack or cause DoS condition on the target system.
The weakness exists due to improper restrictions of the Validation configuration by ActionServlet.java in Apache Struts. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted input, trick the victim into opening it and conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks or cause the application to crash.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may result in denial of service.
Update to version 1.3.10.
