Detailsinfo

A vulnerability, which was classified as critical, was found in Apache MINA up to 2.0.30/2.1.14. This affects the function resolveProxyClass of the component acceptMatchers Filter. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a privileges management vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-269. The product does not properly assign, modify, track, or check privileges for an actor, creating an unintended sphere of control for that actor. This is going to have an impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The summary by CVE is:

The fix for CVE-2026-47065/ZDRES-232 ("resolveProxyClass Not Overridden - acceptMatchers Filter Bypass via java.lang.reflect.Proxy"), released on 2026-06-02 and announced as "Fully addressed" in MINA 2.2.8, 2.1.13 and 2.0.29, was committed to the  2.2.X branch only. The 2.0.X and 2.1.X maintenance branches never received the resolveProxyClass() override, so the 2.0.29 and 2.1.13 artifacts listed as fixed -- and every later release on those lines, up to and including the current 2.0.30 and 2.1.14 -- remain vulnerable to the exact allow-list bypass that CVE-2026-47065 was meant to close.
