-------------------------------------
bq. Although commons-beanutils offers a built-in implementation of
SuppressPropertiesBeanIntrospector in version 1.9.2 that specifically
suppresses the “class” properly, it does not also suppress “Class”. Due to this
insufficient fix which is also not enabled by default, we recommend
implementing your own custom mitigating control such as the one found here -
>From my tests, commons-beanutils doesn't access getClass() when using "Class".
>The only thing that works is using "class".
So can you confirm that SuppressPropertiesBeanIntrospector.SUPPRESS_CLASS is an
actually a "sufficient fix", contrary to what you said earlier ? ( Was this
just confusion with struts2 which uses OGNL which has different rules than
commons-beanutils ?)
Here are the logs I get from beanutils when using "class" vs "Class":
"class":
{noformat}
beanutils.BeanUtils - BeanUtils.populate(com.example.business.Project@3971f0dc,
{Class.classLoader.resources.context.parent.pipeline.first.fileDateFormat=[Ljava.lang.String;@XXXXXXXX})
beanutils.BeanUtils - setProperty(com.example.business.Project@3971f0dc,
Class.classLoader.resources.context.parent.pipeline.first.fileDateFormat, [12])
beanutils.MethodUtils - Matching name=getClass on class
com.example.business.Project
beanutils.MethodUtils - Found matching name:
beanutils.MethodUtils - public final native java.lang.Class

beanutils.MethodUtils - No match found.
beanutils.MethodUtils - Matching name=isClass on class

Thanks in advance

> Project: Velocity Tools
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Build
> Affects Versions: 2.0
> Reporter: Mark Symons
> Priority: Critical
>
> Update dependency on commons-beanutils:commons-beanutils to v1.9.2 and
> mitigate CVE-2014-0114. See BEANUTILS-463 for fix info.
> Velocity Tools v2.0 currently uses bean-utils v1.7.0
> Whilst the CVE text references beanutils v1.8.0, Black Duck Hub threat
> analysis have updated affected versions to include 1.7.0.

> Apache Commons BeanUtils, as distributed in lib/commons-beanutils-1.8.0.jar
> in Apache Struts 1.x through 1.3.10 and in other products requiring
> commons-beanutils through 1.9.2, 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 1.

> h3.Edit: 28th November 2016
> Sonatype Nexus IQ identifies beanutils as a threat as of v1.24 (late November

> the bit that applies to Velocity Tools):
> {quote}
> h4.Explanation
> Apache Commons BeanUtils is vulnerable to ClassLoader manipulation which can
> lead to Remote Code Execution (RCE). Access to the {{class}} and {{Class}}
> properties is not suppressed, exposing them by default. An attacker can
> construct malicious input using the {{class property}} in order to manipulate
> the {{ClassLoader}} potentially leading to arbitrary code execution.
> h4.Detection
> {color:red}If you are the calling application, you are vulnerable by running
> this component without filtering the property names {{class}} and
> {{Class}}{color}. If this is a transitive dependency, you will want to
> contact the parent project to ensure they have added a mitigating control.
> Note: If you are using the built-in implementation of
> {{SuppressPropertiesBeanIntrospector}} added in version 1.9.2 of
> {{commons-beanutils}} as your mitigation you are still vulnerable. Although
> the built-in implementation specifically suppresses the {{class}} properly,
> it does not also suppress {{Class}}.
> h4.Recommendation

> SuppressPropertiesBeanIntrospector in version 1.9.2 that specifically
