# Patch Next advisory brief: CVE-2026-47884

Advisory: Spring Framework Improper Path Limitation in XsltView
IDs: CVE-2026-47884, GHSA-pc63-qcmh-9cmg
Record: https://patchnext.com/advisories/cve-2026-47884 (revision 2, source checked 26 Oct 2026, 16:56 UTC)
Inventory: none attached. This brief comes from a public page and does not say whether any deployment is affected.
Severity: Critical (CVSS 9.8)
Exploitation: no confirmed exploitation recorded. Patch Next confirms exploitation only from CISA KEV.
Vendor response: Partial vendor fix; fixed versions by package: org.springframework:spring-webmvc 7.0.9. A vendor fix does not mean a deployment is fixed.

## Affected components
- Maven org.springframework:spring-webmvc: affected <= 5.2.25.RELEASE; >= 5.3.0, <= 5.3.49; >= 6.0.0, <= 6.0.30; >= 6.1.0, <= 6.1.28; >= 6.2.0, <= 6.2.19; >= 7.0.0, <= 7.0.8; fixed in 7.0.9

## Suggested inspection (read-only)
- Maven org.springframework:spring-webmvc: check the installed version with your package manager.

## Supported action
No complete vendor fix is recorded. Follow the primary source's mitigation guidance and check this record again before closing anything.

## Required regression checks
- Run the test suite and a production build.
- Exercise the features that depend on org.springframework:spring-webmvc.
- Repeat the inspection and confirm that only fixed versions remain installed.

## Rollback considerations
- Keep the previous lockfile and deployment artifact. Rolling back reinstates the vulnerable version, so apply any documented mitigation while you fix forward.

## Unresolved questions
- Which deployments run an affected version?
- Exploitation status can change. Check again before lowering the priority.
- Mark the work resolved only after the fixed version is verified in production.
