How severe is CVE-2010-1622?

No CVSS score has been assigned to CVE-2010-1622 yet. Review the advisory details and affected package list to assess your exposure.

Which packages are affected by CVE-2010-1622?

CVE-2010-1622 affects the following packages: org.springframework:spring (Maven), org.springframework:spring (Maven). Ecosystems affected: Maven.

How do I fix CVE-2010-1622?

Update org.springframework:spring to 2.5.7 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms CVE-2010-1622 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

How do I detect CVE-2010-1622 in my Maven dependencies?

Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for org.springframework:spring, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.

How do I mitigate CVE-2010-1622 if there is no patch (or I can't update yet)?

If you can't upgrade right away: gate or disable the affected feature, validate untrusted input at the boundary, and avoid passing attacker-controlled data into the vulnerable path. O3's runtime protection blocks exploitation in production as an interim safeguard until the upgrade lands.

How does O3 Security protect against CVE-2010-1622?

O3 Security's impact-aware SCA analyses which vulnerable code paths your application actually calls, so a match like CVE-2010-1622 can be triaged on real exposure rather than presence alone.

Is CVE-2010-1622 actively exploited in the wild?

Yes. There are 6 known exploit references for CVE-2010-1622, including 1 documented proof-of-concept exploit on Exploit-DB and 4 in-the-wild exploitations observed on GitHub and other sources. Treat this as actively exploitable and prioritize patching immediately. All exploit code should only be run in an isolated sandbox environment for research or authorized testing — never against production systems without explicit written authorization.

What is the EPSS score for CVE-2010-1622?

CVE-2010-1622 has an EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) score of 52.0%, placing it in the 99th percentile of all CVEs. EPSS is maintained by FIRST.org and estimates the probability that a vulnerability will be exploited in the wild within the next 30 days. A score above 50% indicates significantly elevated exploitation risk — immediate patching is strongly recommended.

What type of vulnerability is CVE-2010-1622?

CVE-2010-1622 is classified as Code Injection (CWE-94). This weakness type describe the underlying flaw category, which helps determine the potential impact and the right class of mitigation. This is a high-impact weakness class that often enables remote code execution or data exposure.

When was CVE-2010-1622 published, and has it been updated?

CVE-2010-1622 was published on May 17, 2022 and was last updated on December 3, 2024. Advisory data evolves as severity scores, affected ranges, and exploit intelligence are revised — always check the latest version of the advisory before acting.
