CVE-2025-41232org.springframework.securityspring-security-aspects+2
EPSS score0.62%
Spring Security Aspects may not correctly locate method security annotations on private methods. This can cause an authorization bypass.
Your application may be affected by this if the following are true:
* You are using @EnableMethodSecurity(mode=ASPECTJ) and spring-security-aspects, and
* You have Spring Security method annotations on a private method
In that case, the target method may be able to be invoked without proper authorization.
You are not affected if:
* You are not using @EnableMethodSecurity(mode=ASPECTJ) or spring-security-aspects, or
* You have no Spring Security-annotated private methodsCVE-2025-22223org.springframework.securityspring-security-core+1EPSS score0.51%
Spring Security 6.4.0 - 6.4.3 may not correctly locate method security annotations on parameterized types or methods. This may cause an authorization bypass.
You are not affected if you are not using @EnableMethodSecurity, or
you do not have method security annotations on parameterized types or methods, or all method security annotations are attached to target methodsCVE-2025-22234org.springframework.securityspring-security-core+1EPSS score0.39%
The fix applied in CVE-2025-22228 inadvertently broke the timing attack mitigation implemented in DaoAuthenticationProvider. This can allow attackers to infer valid usernames or other authentication behavior via response-time differences under certain configurations.CVE-2025-22228chainguardcamunda-zeebe-8.6+34EPSS score0.61%
BCryptPasswordEncoder.matches(CharSequence,String) will incorrectly return true for passwords larger than 72 characters as long as the first 72 characters are the same.CVE-2024-38810org.springframework.securityspring-security-core+2EPSS score0.46%
Missing Authorization When Using @AuthorizeReturnObject in Spring Security 6.3.0 and 6.3.1 allows attacker to render security annotations inaffective.CVE-2024-22234org.springframework.securityspring-security-core+2EPSS score0.68%
In Spring Security, versions 6.1.x prior to 6.1.7 and versions 6.2.x prior to 6.2.2, an application is vulnerable to broken access control when it directly uses the AuthenticationTrustResolver.isFullyAuthenticated(Authentication) method.
Specifically, an application is vulnerable if:
* The application uses AuthenticationTrustResolver.isFullyAuthenticated(Authentication) directly and a null authentication parameter is passed to it resulting in an erroneous true return value.
An application is not vulnerable if any of the following is true:
* The application does not use AuthenticationTrustResolver.isFullyAuthenticated(Authentication) directly.
* The application does not pass null to AuthenticationTrustResolver.isFullyAuthenticated
* The application only uses isFullyAuthenticated via Method Security https://docs.spring.io/spring-security/reference/servlet/authorization/method-security.html or HTTP Request Security https://docs.spring.io/spring-security/reference/servlet/authorization/authorize-http-requests.htmlCVE-2019-11272debianlibspring-security-2.0-java+5EPSS score1.38%
Spring Security, versions 4.2.x up to 4.2.12, and older unsupported versions support plain text passwords using PlaintextPasswordEncoder. If an application using an affected version of Spring Security is leveraging PlaintextPasswordEncoder and a user has a null encoded password, a malicious user (or attacker) can authenticate using a password of "null".CVE-2019-3795debianlibspring-security-2.0-java+4EPSS score1.92%
Spring Security versions 4.2.x prior to 4.2.12, 5.0.x prior to 5.0.12, and 5.1.x prior to 5.1.5 contain an insecure randomness vulnerability when using SecureRandomFactoryBean#setSeed to configure a SecureRandom instance. In order to be impacted, an honest application must provide a seed and make the resulting random material available to an attacker for inspection.CVE-2026-40988org.springframework.securityspring-security-saml2-service-provider+2EPSS score0.46%
An application using spring-security-saml2-service-provider and the REDIRECT binding for SAML 2.0 Login or Logout may be vulnerable to a denial of service by way of an unbounded writer that inflates the compressed SAML payload into memory.
Affected versions:
Spring Security 5.7.0 through 5.7.23; 5.8.0 through 5.8.25; 6.3.0 through 6.3.16; 6.4.0 through 6.4.16; 6.5.0 through 6.5.10; 7.0.0 through 7.0.5.CVE-2026-40993org.springframework.securityspring-security-saml2-service-provider+2EPSS score0.30%
An attacker with write permissions to the database table managed by JdbcAssertingPartyMetadataRepository (saml2_asserting_party_metadata) may be able to store malicious serialized payloads in the columns containing the collection of verification or encryption credentials (verification_credentials and encryption_credentials, respectively).
Affected versions:
Spring Security 7.0.0 through 7.0.5.CVE-2026-59276springspring security+1EPSS score0.33%
Several components in Spring Security compare security-sensitive values using standard string equality (String.equals()) rather than a constant-time comparison. Because String.equals() returns as soon as it finds a differing character, the time taken to reject an incorrect value is proportional to the number of leading characters that match the expected value.

Spring Security's InetAddressMatchers utility provides matchInternal() and matchExternal() builders for constructing an InetAddressMatcher that classifies a given IP address as belonging to an internal (private) or external (public) network.
Spring Security 7.1.0CVE-2026-59270chainguardconductor+3EPSS score0.40%

Authentication Bypass by Capture-replay vulnerability in Spring Spring Security allows Spring Security's DPoPProofJwtDecoderFactory contains a cache-based replay attack vulnerability. The internal cache storing JWT ID claims has a strict size limit, allowing attackers to evict legitimate entries by flooding the server with dummy requests, then replay intercepted valid DPoP proofs.
This issue affects Spring Security: 7.1.0, from 7.0.0 through 7.0.6, and from 6.5.0 through 6.5.11.CVE-2026-41706chainguardapache-nifi-registry-2.11+14EPSS score0.30%
Spring Security's CookieRequestCache and CookieServerRequestCache store the pre-authentication request URL in a browser cookie so that users can be redirected back to their intended destination after a successful login. In affected versions, the full absolute URL is stored in the cookie and is used without validation as the post-login redirect target.
Affected versions:
Spring Security 5.7.0 through 5.7.23; 5.8.0 through 5.8.25; 6.3.0 through 6.3.16; 6.4.0 through 6.4.16; 6.5.0 through 6.5.10; 7.0.0 through 7.0.5.CVE-2026-41008broadcomspring_authorization_server+4EPSS score0.25%
Spring Security Authorization Server's authorization endpoint performs insufficient validation of the request_uri parameter. An attacker can craft a malicious authorization request containing an invalid request_uri and an arbitrary, unvalidated redirect_uri, which can lead to an Open Redirect vulnerability.
Affected versions:
Spring Security 7.0.0 through 7.0.5.
Spring Authorization Server 1.5.0 through 1.5.7.CVE-2026-41694org.springframework.securityspring-security-saml2-service-provider+2EPSS score0.18%
Since Spring Security SAML decrypts SAML Responses as well as elements of SAML LogoutRequests and LogoutResponses without requiring a valid signature, attackers may be able to craft these SAML payloads and use the Service Provider as a decryption oracle.
Affected versions:
Spring Security 5.7.0 through 5.7.23; 5.8.0 through 5.8.25; 6.3.0 through 6.3.16; 6.4.0 through 6.4.16; 6.5.0 through 6.5.10; 7.0.0 through 7.0.5.CVE-2026-41003org.springframework.securityspring-security-saml2-service-provider+2EPSS score0.25%
