struts: User input is evaluated as an OGNL expression when there's a conversion error
Severity by source
Trivy's own label is CRITICAL. Rated critical by NVD, GHSA. Rated lower by Red Hat (high).
Description
The ExceptionDelegator component in Apache Struts before 2.2.3.1 interprets parameter values as OGNL expressions during certain exception handling for mismatched data types of properties, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary Java code via a crafted parameter.
