Vulnerability Name:

CVE-2006-1546 (CCN-25612)

Assigned:2006-03-30
Published:2006-03-30
Updated:2023-02-13
Summary:Struts could allow a remote attacker to bypass security restrictions. If an attacker sends a request with a "org.apache.struts.taglib.html.Constants.CANCEL" parameter, the attacker could cause validation to be canceled without being detected by Struts applications that do not check for isCancelled(). This could allow the attacker to bypass security restrictions and gain unauthorized access to restricted content.
