Critical Apache Commons Text Flaw Lets Hackers Execute Remote Code

## Cybersecurity: Apache Commons Text Vulnerability

ZBy Zachary BurnsDec 18, 20251 min read

Cybersecurity: Apache Commons Text Vulnerability

A critical remote code execution vulnerability has been identified in Apache Commons Text, affecting all versions prior to 1.10.0.

The flaw, designated as CVE-2025-46295, presents a significant security risk for organizations utilizing this Java library for text manipulation and processing. The vulnerability exists within the library's interpolation features, which are intended to substitute variables and expressions within text strings.

Researchers have found that applications passing untrusted input directly into the text-substitution API can allow attackers to exploit specific interpolators. This can lead to the execution of system commands or access external resources, enabling remote code execution on affected systems.

The attack vector is notably hazardous as many developers may be unaware of the security risks associated with passing user-controlled input to text-substitution functions.

Apache has released version 1.14.0 to address this vulnerability by removing or restricting the dangerous interpolation functionality. Organizations using affected versions are strongly advised to apply this patch immediately.

FileMaker Server users should upgrade to version 22.0.4 or later, which incorporates the patched Apache Commons Text 1.14.0.

The vulnerability was responsibly disclosed by a security researcher, allowing for timely patch development and deployment.

System administrators should prioritize updating all applications utilizing Apache Commons Text to version 1.14.0 or later. Organizations should audit applications to identify instances where untrusted input is processed through text-interpolation functions. Enterprises managing multiple FileMaker deployments should schedule upgrades to version 22.0.4 or newer to maintain a strong security posture.
