What is CVE-2018-1275?

The Spring Framework prior to version 5.0.5 and 4.3.16 is susceptible to a vulnerability that allows malicious users to expose STOMP over WebSocket endpoints. Using the spring-messaging module, attackers can craft messages directed at a broker, potentially leading to remote code execution on the application server. This issue represents a partial fix for an earlier vulnerability and affects older, unsupported versions of the framework as well.
