CVE-2023-34478: Path Traversal in Apache Shiro

July 24, 2023 (updated October 2, 2024)

Apache Shiro, before 1.12.0 or 2.0.0-alpha-3, may be susceptible to a path traversal attack that results in an authentication bypass when used together with APIs or other web frameworks that route requests based on non-normalized requests.

Mitigation: Update to Apache Shiro 1.12.0+ or 2.0.0-alpha-3+
