April 30, 2014 (updated June 15, 2019)

Apache Commons BeanUtils 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
