Overview

io.dropwizard:dropwizard-validation is a simple library for building production-ready RESTful web services.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Remote Code Execution (RCE). A server-side template injection was identified in the self-validating feature enabling attackers to inject arbitrary Java EL expressions, leading to Remote Code Execution (RCE) vulnerability.
