CVE-2026-58301 — Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) in Apache Software Foundation Shiro
When Apache Shiro is used with the Jakarta EE integration module, a low-privileged user can craft an HTTP request that causes the server to initiate a connection to an attacker-controlled URL and transmit attacker-controlled data. This vulnerability affects Apache Shiro versions 2.x through 3.0.0 only in deployments that use the Jakarta EE integration module. Mitigation: Upgrade to version 3.0.1 or later, which fixes the issue. + Alternatively, you can set the `org.apache.shiro.form-resubmit-host` (String) and `org.apache.shiro.form-resubmit-port` (Integer) system properties to restrict the host and port that Shiro will connect to when resubmitting a form.
Who exploits it and how urgent it is
A 0–100 score combining confirmed exploitation, ransomware and APT use, public exploits, EPSS and severity.
How the score was calculated
- Technical severity (medium)+3
The score orders the patch queue; it does not replace your asset context (internet exposure, criticality, compensating controls).
Triage
Is it exploited, how likely is exploitation, what does it touch, and how severe do the sources call it.
Remediation
Fixes and mitigations documented by the sources — linked to the original advisory.
No fix documented by the sources we poll. That does not mean none exists: check the vendor advisory.
First 24 hours
Ordered from the record’s own fields — exposure first, because you cannot patch what you have not found. A rule-generated starting point.
- Identify exposed assets running the affected vendor/product/version combinations (Apache Software Foundation Shiro).
- No fix documented in the sources: reduce exposure and monitor the vendor advisory.
- Search available logs for exploit probes matching the vulnerability class (ssrf), errors and authentication anomalies.
Affected scope
Vendor, product and versions as the sources word them.

Every base score collected
Sources score independently and may disagree; each row says who scored it and under which version.

CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N (score shown at the top: nvd@nist.gov) Weakness MITRE
Weakness class according to MITRE’s CWE catalog.
Detection
Read off the CVSS vector and the weakness class. Starting points, not tested rules.
- Prioritize edge telemetry for the network-reachable component (proxy, WAF, IDS/IPS).
- Monitor outbound requests from the server to internal IPs and cloud metadata endpoints.
