First of all, security on web applications is of a concern but not as
much as one would think.
To find all the security vulnerabilities within any application, or
framework, one would find all the entry points which allow user
provided data. This could be a field, a protocol, etc. and then one

Ok, so the only option is got through each security bulletin and check
provided Proof-of-Concept if it affects your application. And DMI
isn't a problem if used wise.

I don't mean it like that, but something like a proof of concept

Everything you can find is in Struts repository, it's Open Source not
a close code software ;-)
And there is no the "test" which magically checks security
vulnerabilities, even secu
Thanks Lukazs, the problem i'm facing now is our product is so huge to do a
migration and running mainly on DMI. I'm unable to convince my top
management about how bad strust2 vulnerability is (since i dont know how to
replicate the vulnerability). So I have no choice other than option 2.

I do not think that is possible.
You have 2 options
1. Upgrade you struts2 version.
2. Go through security vulnerability and see what was there and create test
cases to see what exactly is happening and fix them by checking patches.
But IMO, upgrading to latest version is much more flexible and l

What you mean by that? What test case you refer to?

One more doubt, does this security vulnerability is able to bring down the
server :-) ? If we authorize ourselves to apache, is it possible for struts
team to give us test case to check the vulnerability?

If you don't want to upgrade you should at least check the security
bulletins

http://struts.apache.org/release/2.3.x/docs/security-bulletins.html

Though task ;-)
The only option is to analyse what kind of vulnerabilities were
discovered after and which of them can potentially affect your version
(given vulnerable functionality exists in your version you use right
now).

Hi,
Due to time and other internal constraints, we are unable to upgrade
strust2 to the latest version. So i would like to know if we use old
strust2 distro (in my case : struts2-core-2.1.2), what are the counter
measurement need to taken care?
