关于应用是否存在CVE-2018-1270 Spring Framework漏洞的确认请求

Great question—let's break this down clearly to give you a definitive answer:

First, what is CVE-2018-1270? #

CVE-2018-1270 is a remote code execution vulnerability that only targets the STOMP protocol handling in Spring WebSocket. For this vulnerability to be exploitable, two non-negotiable conditions must be met:

1. The application uses Spring WebSocket (and includes the corresponding dependencies).
2. The application explicitly enables STOMP support (via code like @EnableWebSocketMessageBroker or equivalent XML configuration).

Applying this to your application #

Based on your description, your app checks neither of these boxes:

• You’re not using Spring WebSocket or any form of WebSocket dependencies: The code paths containing the vulnerability don’t exist in your application at all. Without the Spring WebSocket jars, there’s simply no surface for the exploit to target.
• You have no code references enabling STOMP support: Even if you did have WebSocket dependencies (which you don’t), without configuring STOMP message brokering, the vulnerable logic never gets activated.

A quick note on your Spring versions #

While your spring-web (4.3.12.RELEASE) falls within the version range initially cited as affected by CVE-2018-1270 (4.3.x up to 4.3.13), that vulnerability only applies to applications using the Spring WebSocket + STOMP stack. Since you’re not using that stack, the version number here is irrelevant to this specific CVE.

Final conclusion #

Your application does not face any risk from CVE-2018-1270.
