VMware Security Advisories (VMSA) via NVD
Broadcom's VMSA portal is a JavaScript app with no stable public feed, so VulniPulse ingests VMware CVEs from NVD filtered to VMware's own CNAs (security@vmware.com and Broadcom's successor CNA) — official, CNA-published data covering ESXi, vCenter Server, NSX, Aria/vRealize, Cloud Foundation, Workstation/Fusion and VMware Tools. Each entry links back to the Broadcom/VMware advisory when NVD carries the reference.

Critical [CVE-2026-40976] In certain circumstances, Spring Boot's default web security is ineffective allowing unauthorized access to all endpoints
In certain circumstances, Spring Boot's default web security is ineffective allowing unauthorized access to all endpoints. For an application to be vulnerable, it must: be a servlet-based web application; have no Spring Security configuration of its own and rely on the default web security filter chain; depend on spring-boot-actuator-autoconfigure; not depend on spring-boot-health. If any of the above does not apply, the application is not vulnerable. Affected: Spring Boot 4.0.0–4.0.5; upgrade to 4.0.6 or later per vendor advisory.
High [CVE-2026-40973] Spring Boot: local attacker on the same host as the application may be able to take control of the directory used by `ApplicationTemp`
A local attacker on the same host as the application may be able to take control of the directory used by `ApplicationTemp`. When `server.servlet.session.persistent` is set to `true` and the attack persists across application restarts, this may allow the attacker to read session information and hijack authenticated users or deploy a gadget chain and execute code as the application's user. Affected: Spring Boot 4.0.0–4.0.5 (fix 4.0.6), 3.5.0–3.5.13 (fix 3.5.14), 3.4.0–3.4.15 (fix 3.4.16), 3.3.0–3.3.18 (fix 3.3.19), 2.7.0–2.7.32 (fix 2.7.33); predictable temp directory / `ApplicationTemp` ownership verification. Versions that are no longer supported are also affected per vendor advisory.
High [CVE-2026-40972] Spring Boot: attacker on the same network as the remote application
An attacker on the same network as the remote application may be able to utilize a timing attack to discover information about the remote secret. In extreme circumstances this could result in the attacker determining the secret and uploading changed classes, thereby achieving remote code execution in the remote application. Affected: Spring Boot 4.0.0–4.0.5 (fix 4.0.6), 3.5.0–3.5.13 (fix 3.5.14), 3.4.0–3.4.15 (fix 3.4.16), 3.3.0–3.3.18 (fix 3.3.19), 2.7.0–2.7.32 (fix 2.7.33); DevTools remote secret comparison. Versions that are no longer supported are also affected per vendor advisory.
Medium [CVE-2026-40977] Spring Boot: When an application is configured to use `ApplicationPidFileWriter`, a local attacker with write access to the PID file's location
When an application is configured to use `ApplicationPidFileWriter`, a local attacker with write access to the PID file's location can corrupt one file on the host each time the application is started. Affected: Spring Boot 4.0.0–4.0.5 (fix 4.0.6), 3.5.0–3.5.13 (fix 3.5.14), 3.4.0–3.4.15 (fix 3.4.16), 3.3.0–3.3.18 (fix 3.3.19), 2.7.0–2.7.32 (fix 2.7.33); PID file / symlink behavior (`ApplicationPidFileWriter`). Versions that are no longer supported are also affected per vendor advisory.
Medium [CVE-2026-40975] Spring Boot: Values produced by ${random.value} are not suitable for use as secrets.
Values produced by ${random.value} are not suitable for use as secrets. ${random.uuid} is not affected. ${random.int} and ${random.long} should never be used for secrets as they are numeric values with a predictable range. Affected: Spring Boot 4.0.0–4.0.5 (fix 4.0.6), 3.5.0–3.5.13 (fix 3.5.14), 3.4.0–3.4.15 (fix 3.4.16), 3.3.0–3.3.18 (fix 3.3.19), 2.7.0–2.7.32 (fix 2.7.33); random value property source / weak PRNG for secrets. Versions that are no longer supported are also affected per vendor advisory.
Medium [CVE-2026-40974] Spring Boot's Cassandra auto-configuration does not perform hostname verification when establishing an SSL connection to Cassandra
Spring Boot's Cassandra auto-configuration does not perform hostname verification when establishing an SSL connection to Cassandra. Versions that are no longer supported are also affected per vendor advisory.
Medium [CVE-2026-40971] When configured to use an SSL bundle, Spring Boot's RabbitMQ auto-configuration does not perform hostname verification
When configured to use an SSL bundle, Spring Boot's RabbitMQ auto-configuration does not perform hostname verification when connecting to the RabbitMQ broker. Affected: Spring Boot 4.0.0–4.0.5 (fix 4.0.6), 3.5.0–3.5.13 (fix 3.5.14) per vendor advisory.
Medium [CVE-2026-40970] When configured to use an SSL bundle, Spring Boot's Elasticsearch auto-configuration does not perform hostname verification
When configured to use an SSL bundle, Spring Boot's Elasticsearch auto-configuration does not perform hostname verification when connecting to the Elasticsearch server. Affected: Spring Boot 4.0.0–4.0.5; upgrade to 4.0.6 or later per vendor advisory.
High [CVE-2026-22754] ervlet Path Not Correctly Included in Path Matching of XML Authorization Rules
Vulnerability in Spring Spring Security. If an application uses to define the servlet path for computing a path matcher, then the servlet path is not included and the related authorization rules are not exercised. This can lead to an authorization bypass. This issue affects Spring Security: from 7.0.0 through 7.0.4.
High [CVE-2026-22753] Spring Security: Vulnerability in Spring Spring Security.
Vulnerability in Spring Spring Security. If an application is using securityMatchers(String) and a PathPatternRequestMatcher. Builder bean to prepend a servlet path, matching requests to that filter chain may fail and its related security components will not be exercised as intended by the application. This can lead to the authentication, authorization, and other security controls being rendered inactive on intended requests. This issue affects Spring Security: from 7.0.0 through 7.0.4.
Medium [CVE-2026-22748] Spring Security: Vulnerability in Spring Spring Security.
Vulnerability in Spring Spring Security. When an application configures JWT decoding with NimbusJwtDecoder or NimbusReactiveJwtDecoder, it must configure an OAuth2TokenValidator separately, for example by calling setJwtValidator.
