Recurring patterns

The bug types that recur here, drawn from past fixes, not open vulnerabilities.

Deserialization of Untrusted Data: Attackers can exploit incoming JMS messages to instantiate arbitrary, dangerous Java classes. This risk is highlighted by historical fixes restricting package resolution in both MappingJackson2MessageConverter and JacksonJsonMessageConverter.

Insecure Deserialization: The DefaultDeserializer lacks restricted class validation by default, which can lead to remote code execution when unmarshalling untrusted data streams if an ObjectInputFilter is not configured.

Expression Language Injection: Double-evaluation of Expression Language (EL) expressions in tags allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or obtain sensitive information, as seen in CVE-2011-2730.
