This is a bad idea for so many different reasons. To name a few: - "Spring4Shell" allows arbitrary file uploads. All an attacker has to do to bypass this change is to upload a web.xml file that re-enables the mapping - It does nothing to help users that want/need to use JSPs. - Users that had followed the documented security recommendations and set OS file permissions appropriately would have been protected not only against "Spring4Shell"but against any similar vulnerability as well -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
