Spring Cloud Gateway - Remote Code Execution (CVE-2022-22947)

Spring Cloud Gateway is affected by a Remote Code Execution, located in the /actuator/gateway/routes endpoint. The root cause of this vulnerability is the insecure usage of StandardEvaluationContext class in the vulnerable endpoint, which can be used for injecting code attacks. The versions affected are below 3.0.7 release and 3.1.0 version

The risk exists that a remote unauthenticated attacker can fully compromise the server in order to steal confidential information, install ransomware, or pivot to the internal network.

Sniper can gain unauthenticated Remote Code Execution on the target system and extract multiple artefacts as evidence.

Upgrade the Spring Cloud Gateway to a version higher than 3.0.7 or 3.1.1.
