NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream libhibernate-validator-java package and not the libhibernate-validator-java package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:11 relevant fixed versions and status.

ReflectionHelper (org.hibernate.validator.util.ReflectionHelper) in Hibernate Validator 4.1.0 before 4.2.1, 4.3.x before 4.3.2, and 5.x before 5.1.2 allows attackers to bypass Java Security Manager (JSM) restrictions and execute restricted reflection calls via a crafted application.
