Hi Lukasz,

happy new year to you and everyone as well!

Unfortunately I had some trouble with the mailing list and thus did not receive your reply. I have found it browsing the group by browser and so I post your reply here for reference:

Happy New Year!

The Tiles codebase has been copied into the Struts Tiles plugin [1] and it's a part of the Struts 6.3.0 right now. Migrating to this version should solve the problem. And we (Struts) are going to maintain the Tiles codebase under the plugin, so no worries :) [1] https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WW-5233 Cheers Łukasz

I am very glad to hear that we do not have to move away from Tiles as it is a core of our product. We are running the OWASP dependency checker during the build. As we are on Struts 6.3.0.2 already, which shoul dbe the most recent version, I am not quite clear what to do now as the checker still marks struts-tiles-plugin.jar as vulnerable:

Dependency-Check Failure: One or more dependencies were identified with vulnerabilities that have a CVSS score greater than or equal to '7,0': struts2-tiles-plugin.jar: CVE-2023-49735

So my question is: can we treat this as a false positive or is the vulnerability still there and we need to wait for fix version?

Kind regards

Sebastian

Hello to anybody and an happy new year!

Our dependency check startet to fail last year already marking struts2-tiles-plugin as the source of a security issue. As the plugin uses Apache Tiles 3.0.8 underneath it is affected by CVE-2023-49735. Now as we use the struts-tiles-plugin to build our web pages and the Tiles project is already retired, can somebody of the team explain how to mitigate the security issue (besides moving away from Tiles completely)?

Kind regards

Sebastian
