How to fix?

Upgrade org.springframework.security:spring-security-core to version 2.0.7.RELEASE, 3.0.6.RELEASE or higher.

Overview

org.springframework.security:spring-security-core is a package that provides security services for the Spring IO Platform.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Access Restriction Bypass. Remote attackers can bypass intended security restrictions and execute untrusted code by (1) serializing a java.lang.Proxy instance and using InvocationHandler, or (2) accessing internal AOP interfaces, as demonstrated using deserialization of a DefaultListableBeanFactory instance to execute arbitrary commands via the java.lang.Runtime class.
