Summary

The remote host is missing an update to libspring-2.5-java announced via advisory DSA 2504-1.

Insight

Insight

It was discovered that the Spring Framework contains an information disclosure vulnerability in the processing of certain Expression Language (EL) patterns, allowing attackers to access sensitive information using HTTP requests. NOTE: This update adds a springJspExpressionSupport context parameter which must be manually set to false when the Spring Framework runs under a container which provides EL support itself. For the stable distribution (squeeze), this problem has been fixed in version 2.5.6.SEC02-2+squeeze1.

Solution

Solution

We recommend that you upgrade your libspring-2.5-java packages.
