Noroxi assessment
Priority: Now (action score 99/100)
- CISA has confirmed exploitation in the wild (May 16, 2022). Remediation deadline for US federal agencies: Jun 6, 2022.
- A ready-made attack module is public (Metasploit, Nuclei); exploiting it takes no special expertise.
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 98.2% (FIRST EPSS); higher than 99.9% of all records.
- Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. No account or password is required. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
- According to CISA the attack is automatable: targets can be found by mass scanning.
- Fixed version: org.springframework.cloud:spring-cloud-gateway (Maven) 3.1.1, 3.0.7.
Patch today or shut off access. Upgrade to org.springframework.cloud:spring-cloud-gateway (Maven) 3.1.1, 3.0.7 or later.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · CISA KEV · FIRST EPSS
In spring cloud gateway versions prior to 3.1.1+ and 3.0.7+ , applications are vulnerable to a code injection attack when the Gateway Actuator endpoint is enabled, exposed and unsecured. A remote attacker could make a maliciously crafted request that could allow arbitrary remote execution on the remote host.
