I certainly hope you are right.  Though I believe the version you listed is the RedHat package, not the one in the jpackage repo that the install documents indicate.  That is struts-1.3.8-2.jpp5.noarch.  That version already pops in 3 different scanner products for other vulnerabilities.

Hi,

The CVE is applicable to struts2, while the version from JPackage is struts-1.3.10-12.el7.noarch. I’m assuming (hoping) that it’s actually too old to be vulnerable.

Cheers,
Avi
