Root Cause Analysis
The vulnerability stems from improper class access control in RhinoClassShutter.visibleToScripts method. The pre-patch implementation used a limited whitelist combined with broad pattern-based allowances (like 'org.' prefixes), which could permit access to network-related classes. The commit fixes this by switching to a strict regex-based whitelist. The visibleToScripts() function directly controls class visibility to scripts, making it the entry point for the SSRF vulnerability when combined with the insufficient whitelist.
