CVE-2012-0838: OGNL expression unexpected evaluation on conversion error

March 2, 2012 (updated December 7, 2018)

This package evaluates a string as an OGNL expression during the handling of a conversion error, which allows remote attackers to modify run-time data values, and consequently execute arbitrary code, via invalid input to a field.
