Descriptions
Spring Security 5.4.x prior to 5.4.4, 5.3.x prior to 5.3.8.RELEASE, 5.2.x prior to 5.2.9.RELEASE, and older unsupported versions can fail to save the SecurityContext if it is changed more than once in a single request.A malicious user cannot cause the bug to happen (it must be programmed in). However, if the application's intent is to only allow the user to run with elevated privileges in a small portion of the application, the bug can be leveraged to extend those privileges to the rest of the application.
Spring Security versiones 5.4.x anteriores a 5.4.4, versiones 5.3.x anteriores a 5.3.8.RELEASE, versiones 5.2.x anteriores a 5.2.9.RELEASE, y versiones anteriores no compatibles, pueden producir un fallo al guardar el SecurityContext si se cambia más de una vez en una sola petición. Un usuario malicioso no puede causar el error (debe estar programado). Sin embargo, si la intención de la aplicación es sólo permitir que el usuario solo se ejecute con privilegios elevados en una pequeña parte de la aplicación, el error puede ser aprovechado para extender esos privilegios al resto de la aplicación
