XWork 2.0.x 'ParameterInterceptor' Class OGNL Security Bypass Vulnerability. Inadequate handling of user-supplied input allows attackers to manipulate server-side context objects, compromising the application

Code

                                                source: http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/32101/info

XWork is prone to a security-bypass vulnerability because it fails to adequately handle user-supplied input.

Attackers can exploit this issue to manipulate server-side context objects with the privileges of the user running the application. Successful exploits can compromise the application and possibly the underlying computer.

Versions prior to XWork 2.0.6 are vulnerable. Struts 2.0.0 through 2.0.11.2 contain vulnerable versions of XWorks and are therefore also affected. 

To set #session.user to '0wn3d':

('\u0023' + 'session[\'user\']')(unused)=0wn3d
