CVE-2020-5408
GHSA-2ppp-9496-p23q
Use of Insufficiently Random Values Spring Security uses a fixed null initialization vector with CBC Mode in the implementation of the queryable text encryptor. A malicious user with access to the data that has been encrypted using such an encryptor may be able to derive the unencrypted values using a dictionary attack.

Insufficient Entropy in PRNG Spring Security contain an insecure randomness vulnerability when using `SecureRandomFactoryBean#setSeed` to configure a `SecureRandom` instance. In order to be impacted, an honest application must provide a seed and make the resulting random material available to an attacker for inspection.

CVE-2018-1199
GHSA-v596-fwhq-8x48
Improper Input Validation Spring Security does not consider URL path parameters when processing security constraints. By adding a URL path parameter with special encodings, an attacker may be able to bypass a security constraint. The root cause of this issue is a lack of clarity regarding the handling of path parameters in the Servlet Specification. Some Servlet containers include path parameters in the value returned for `getPathInfo()` and some do not. Spring Security uses the value returned by `getPathInfo()` as part of the process of mapping requests to security constraints. In this particular attack, different character encodings used in path parameters allows secured Spring MVC static resource URLs to be bypassed.

VCID-efx3-b7vv-nfde Deserialization of Untrusted Data When configured to enable default typing, Jackson contained a deserialization vulnerability that could lead to arbitrary code execution. which means that (through the previous exploit) arbitrary code could be executed if all of the following is true: (1) Spring Security's Jackson support is being leveraged by invoking `SecurityJackson2Modules.getModules(ClassLoader)` or `SecurityJackson2Modules.enableDefaultTyping(ObjectMapper);` (2) Jackson is used to deserialize data that is not trusted (Spring Security does not perform deserialization using Jackson, so this is an explicit choice of the user); and (3) there is an unknown (Jackson is not excluding it already) `deserialization gadget` that allows code execution present on the classpath. Jackson provides a exclusion approach to protecting against this type of attack, but Spring Security should be proactive against blocking unknown `deserialization gadgets` when Spring Security enables default typing.
