Exploitation evidence

Detectable: no evidence on record.
No public nuclei template indexed

No public exploit code indexed in Metasploit or Exploit-DB

No attack traffic recorded by OffSeq Mirage sensors

A missing step is not evidence of safety. Sources: cve.org (opens in a new tab), the Metasploit, Exploit-DB and nuclei-templates index as of 26 Oct 2026.

Disclosed: The CVE record is public on cve.org. Its publication is t = 0.
Detectable: A public nuclei template can find exposed instances, for defenders and attackers alike.
Weaponised: Public exploit code exists in Metasploit or Exploit-DB, or CISA SSVC reports a public proof of concept.
Exploited in the wild: CISA KEV lists it, CISA SSVC rates exploitation active, or a source reports attacks.
Observed by OffSeq Mirage: OffSeq Mirage honeypot sensors recorded attack traffic for this CVE, or found exposed hosts without attack traffic.

Moments are spaced evenly, not to scale; a dashed line marks a gap of six months or more. Deltas count from t = 0. Sources that give only a date (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, or a time of exactly 00:00Z) read “same day” rather than hours. Metasploit modules carry the flaw’s disclosure date, not their release date, and nuclei templates carry no date, so both appear above but not on the timeline.

What to do

Upgrade org.apache.commons/commons-beanutils to 1.11.0.

AI-suggested

Red Hat has released an official security update for apache-commons-beanutils in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 Extended Lifecycle Support. Users should apply the update as described in Red Hat advisory RHSA-2025:10814 and the referenced article https://access.redhat.com/articles/11258. This update addresses the vulnerability by correcting the handling of the enum's declaredClass property. No additional mitigation steps are indicated by Red Hat.

Description

The Apache Commons BeanUtils library provides utility methods for accessing and modifying properties of arbitrary JavaBeans. Security Fix(es): * commons-beanutils: Apache Commons BeanUtils: PropertyUtilsBean does not suppresses an enum's declaredClass property by default (CVE-2025-48734) For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS score, acknowledgments, and other related information, refer to the CVE page(s) listed in the References section.

Impact

The vulnerability could allow unauthorized access or modification of enum properties due to the lack of suppression of the declaredClass property in PropertyUtilsBean. This may lead to improper access control in applications using the affected library version. Red Hat rates the security impact as Important (high severity). There are no known exploits in the wild at this time.

Summary

The Apache Commons BeanUtils library provides utility methods for accessing and modifying properties of JavaBeans. The vulnerability CVE-2025-48734 arises because PropertyUtilsBean does not suppress an enum's declaredClass property by default, potentially allowing unintended property access or modification. Red Hat released a security update for the apache-commons-beanutils package in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 Extended Lifecycle Support to address this issue. The advisory is RHSA-2025:10814. The vulnerability is categorized under CWE-284 (Improper Access Control).

Pillar weaknessCWE Top 25 (2025): #19OWASP Top 10 A01:2025: Broken Access Control (opens in a new tab)
The product does not restrict or incorrectly restricts access to a resource from an unauthorized actor.
MITRE discourages mapping vulnerabilities to this broad entry; the root cause is usually a more specific weakness.
Architecture and Design · Operation
Very carefully manage the setting, management, and handling of privileges. Explicitly manage trust zones in the software.
Architecture and Design · Separation of Privilege
Compartmentalize the system to have "safe" areas where trust boundaries can be unambiguously drawn. Do not allow sensitive data to go outside of the trust boundary and always be careful when interfacing with a compartment outside of the safe area.
