Root Cause Analysis
The vulnerability stems from StaxParserUtil
's attribute handling where system property substitution occurred. The commit removes this behavior specifically in getAttributeValue()
, which processes XML attributes during SAML parsing. This function would appear in stack traces when processing malicious SAML requests containing ${sys:...} patterns, as it directly handled the vulnerable substitution logic prior to patching.
