CVE-2018-1270: Spring Framework allows applications to expose STOMP over WebSocket endpoints

October 17, 2018 (updated January 31, 2025)

Spring Framework, versions 5.0 prior to 5.0.5 and versions 4.3 prior to 4.3.16 and older unsupported versions, allow applications to expose STOMP over WebSocket endpoints with a simple, in-memory STOMP broker through the spring-messaging module. A malicious user (or attacker) can craft a message to the broker that can lead to a remote code execution attack.
