When using Apache Shiro before 1.11.0 together with Spring Boot 2.6+, a specially crafted HTTP request may cause an authentication bypass.
The authentication bypass occurs when Shiro and Spring Boot are using different pattern-matching techniques. Both Shiro and Spring Boot < 2.6 default to Ant style pattern matching.
Mitigation: Update to Apache Shiro 1.11.0, or set the following Spring Boot configuration value: spring.mvc.pathmatch.matching-strategy = ant_path_matcher
Product A handles inputs or steps differently than Product B, which causes A to perform incorrect actions based on its perception of B’s state.
