Detailsinfo

A vulnerability, which was classified as critical, was found in Oracle Communications MetaSolv Solution 6.2.1.0.0 (Cloud Software). Affected is an unknown functionality in the library lib/commons-beanutils-1.8.0.jar of the component Infrastructure/LSR/ASR. The manipulation of the argument this with an unknown input leads to a input validation vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-20. The product receives input or data, but it does not validate or incorrectly validates that the input has the properties that are required to process the data safely and correctly. This is going to have an impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. CVE summarizes:

Apache Commons BeanUtils, as distributed in lib/commons-beanutils-1.8.0.jar in Apache Struts 1.x through 1.3.10 and in other products requiring commons-beanutils through 1.9.2, does not suppress the class property, which allows remote attackers to "manipulate" the ClassLoader and execute arbitrary code via the class parameter, as demonstrated by the passing of this parameter to the getClass method of the ActionForm object in Struts 1.
