Description

Vulnerability in Spring Spring Security. If an application uses <sec:intercept-url servlet-path="/servlet-path" pattern="/endpoint/**"/> to define the servlet path for computing a path matcher, then the servlet path is not included and the related authorization rules are not exercised. This can lead to an authorization bypass. This issue affects Spring Security: from 7.0.0 through 7.0.4.
