CVE-2014-0116: Classloader manipulation via CookieInterceptor

May 8, 2014 (updated August 12, 2019)

CookieInterceptor in this package, when a wildcard cookiesName value is used, does not properly restrict access to the getClass method, which allows remote attackers to “manipulate” the ClassLoader and modify session state via a crafted request. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2014-0113.
