What is CVE-2024-22533?

CVE-2024-22533 is a critical-severity code injection vulnerability in com.ibeetl:beetl-core (maven), affecting versions < 3.15.13.RELEASE. It is fixed in 3.15.13.RELEASE. Untrusted input is evaluated as executable code within the application's runtime environment.

How severe is CVE-2024-22533?

CVE-2024-22533 has a CVSS score of 9.8 (Critical). This score reflects the worst-case severity of the vulnerability, not your specific exposure. Whether it represents real risk in your environment depends on whether the vulnerable code is present and reachable.

Which versions of com.ibeetl:beetl-core are affected by CVE-2024-22533?

com.ibeetl:beetl-core (maven) versions < 3.15.13.RELEASE is affected.

Is there a fix for CVE-2024-22533?

Yes. CVE-2024-22533 is fixed in 3.15.13.RELEASE. Upgrade to this version or later.

Is CVE-2024-22533 exploitable, and should I be worried?

Whether CVE-2024-22533 is exploitable in your environment depends on whether the vulnerable code is present and reachable. A CVSS score is a worst-case rating; it does not account for your specific deployment, configuration, or usage patterns. Kodem, an Intelligent Application Security platform, uses runtime intelligence to show which vulnerabilities actually execute in production, so you can focus on the ones that represent real risk.

What actually determines whether CVE-2024-22533 is exploitable, and how bad it is?

Exploitability and impact are not fixed properties of a CVE. They depend on runtime truth: whether the vulnerable code is present, reachable, and actually executes in your application. A high CVSS score on a dependency that never runs is not the same as real risk. Kodem, an Intelligent Application Security platform, uses runtime intelligence to reveal which vulnerabilities actually execute in production, so teams prioritize the ones that genuinely matter.

Summary

Beetl Server-Side Template Injection vulnerability

Before Beetl v3.15.13.RELEASE, the rendering template has a server-side template injection (SSTI) vulnerability. When the incoming template is controllable, it will be filtered by the DefaultNativeSecurityManager blacklist. Because blacklist filtering is not strict, the blacklist can be bypassed, leading to arbitrary code execution.

Impact

Untrusted input is evaluated as executable code within the application's runtime environment. Typical impact: arbitrary code execution within the application's privilege context.

CVE-2024-22533 has a CVSS score of 9.8 (Critical). The vector is network-reachable, no privileges required, and no user interaction. A CVSS score reflects the worst-case severity of the vulnerability, not your specific exposure. Whether this affects your application depends on whether the vulnerable code is present and reachable in your environment. A fixed version is available (3.15.13.RELEASE); upgrading removes the vulnerable code path.

Affected versions

com.ibeetl:beetl-core (< 3.15.13.RELEASE)

Security releases

com.ibeetl:beetl-core → 3.15.13.RELEASE (maven)

Kodem intelligence

Severity tells you how bad this could be in the worst case. It does not tell you whether you are exposed. Exploitability and impact are functions of runtime truth: whether the vulnerable code is present, reachable, and actually executes in your application. A vulnerable package can sit in your dependency tree and never run.

Kodem, an Intelligent Application Security platform, uses runtime intelligence to reveal which vulnerabilities actually execute in production, so teams prioritize the ones that genuinely matter. Kodem's runtime-powered SCA identifies whether this CVE is reachable in your applications.
