QID 983467: Java (maven) Security Update for commons-beanutils:commons-beanutils (GHSA-p66x-2cv9-qq3v)

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.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may affect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the targeted user.
