Title
Apache Commons BCEL: Nested Code/Record attributes drive unbounded parse-time recursion in ClassParser
Summary
Symbolic name not mapping to correct object vulnerability in Apache Commons.
BCEL caches attacker-controlled classes under their self-declared names without validating the requested name, allowing subsequent lookups and name-keyed verification results to refer to a different class.
This issue affects Apache Commons: before 6.13.0.
Users are recommended to upgrade to version 6.13.0, which fixes the issue.

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the
vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base
model, served locally by ML-Gateway.
They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
