Vulnerability investigation

Prioritize by applicability, impact, and exploitation evidence

The available snapshot does not list this vulnerability in CISA KEV; that is not proof exploitation has not occurred. NVD rates the technical severity medium at CVSS 5.3. These are public vulnerability signals, not proof that a specific environment runs an affected version.

Exploitation status

No KEV listing in available snapshot

Absence from KEV does not establish absence of exploitation.

30-day exploitation likelihood

Unavailable

FIRST EPSS did not return a score.

MODERATE

Broadcom Spring Web Services

NVD CPE / CISA product metadata

Product names are candidate applicability pivots. Confirm exact deployed versions and vendor ranges before remediation decisions.

What remains unknown

Whether your environment runs an affected product and version is not established by this public lookup.
Reachability, compensating controls, and successful exploitation in a specific environment are not checked.
CISA KEV absence is a point-in-time catalog result, not evidence that exploitation has never occurred.
No locally ingested public report supplies exploit, actor, or campaign context for this CVE.

What this is

Several Spring WS integration paths with Spring Security could surface detailed account state (for example locked or disabled user semantics) to remote SOAP clients through exception messages or callback outcomes, instead of failing with generic authentication errors. That behavior assists remote attackers in distinguishing valid accounts from invalid ones and inferring lifecycle state. Affected versions: Spring Web Services 5.0.0 through 5.0.1; 4.1.0 through 4.1.3; 4.0.0 through 4.0.18; 3.1.0 through 3.1.8.
