TITLE

Apache Tomcat Vulnerability that could bypass the security manager limitation in the default servlet

DESCRIPTION

java/org/apache/catalina/servlets/DefaultServlet.java in the default servlet in Apache Tomcat before 6.0.40, 7.x before 7.0.53, and 8.x before 8.0.4 does not properly restrict XSLT stylesheets, which allows remote attackers to bypass security-manager restrictions and read arbitrary files via a crafted web application that provides an XML external entity declaration in conjunction with an entity reference, related to an XML External Entity (XXE) issue. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 _______________________________________________________________________ Mandriva Linux Security Advisory MDVSA-2015:084 http://www.mandriva.com/en/support/security/ _______________________________________________________________________ Package : tomcat Date : March 28, 2015 Affected: Business Server 2.0 _______________________________________________________________________ Problem Description: Updated tomcat package fixes security vulnerabilities: It was discovered that the Apache Commons FileUpload package for Java could enter an infinite loop while processing a multipart request with a crafted Content-Type, resulting in a denial-of-service condition (CVE-2014-0050). Apache Tomcat 7.x before 7.0.50 processes chunked transfer coding without properly handling (1) a large total amount of chunked data or (2) whitespace characters in an HTTP header value within a trailer field, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service by streaming data (CVE-2013-4322). In Apache Tomcat 7.x before 7.0.55, it was possible to craft a malformed chunk as part of a chunked request that caused Tomcat to read part of the request body as a new request (CVE-2014-0227). _______________________________________________________________________ References: http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2013-4322 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2013-4590 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2014-0050 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2014-0075 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2014-0096 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2014-0099 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2014-0119 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2014-0227 http://advisories.mageia.org/MGASA-2014-0110.html http://advisories.mageia.org/MGASA-2014-0149.html http://advisories.mageia.org/MGASA-2014-0268.html _______________________________________________________________________ Updated Packages: Mandriva Business Server 2/X86_64: 58f55f0050c7ac4eb3c31308cc62d244 mbs2/x86_64/tomcat-7.0.59-1.mbs2.noarch.rpm 9c28750a8ec902d5bde42748a14d99ab mbs2/x86_64/tomcat-admin-webapps-7.0.59-1.mbs2.noarch.rpm b62639d405462dc9f28fd4afe11ddd57 mbs2/x86_64/tomcat-docs-webapp-7.0.59-1.mbs2.noarch.rpm 57b85f852426d5c7e282542165d2ea6f mbs2/x86_64/tomcat-el-2.2-api-7.0.59-1.mbs2.noarch.rpm 8410dbab11abe4f307576ecd657e427c mbs2/x86_64/tomcat-javadoc-7.0.59-1.mbs2.noarch.rpm aaffb8c0cd7d82c6dcb1b0ecc00dc7c8 mbs2/x86_64/tomcat-jsp-2.2-api-7.0.59-1.mbs2.noarch.rpm 538438ca90caa2eb6f49bca3bb6e0e2e mbs2/x86_64/tomcat-jsvc-7.0.59-1.mbs2.noarch.rpm 9a2d902c3a3e24af3f2da240c42c787f mbs2/x86_64/tomcat-lib-7.0.59-1.mbs2.noarch.rpm af5562b305ae7fd1406a9c94c9316cb5 mbs2/x86_64/tomcat-log4j-7.0.59-1.mbs2.noarch.rpm 3349a91a1667f299641e16aed4c3aadc mbs2/x86_64/tomcat-servlet-3.0-api-7.0.59-1.mbs2.noarch.rpm 4777adcbc177da7e1b8b158d6186141c mbs2/x86_64/tomcat-webapps-7.0.59-1.mbs2.noarch.rpm b832a8fcd47ae9fb696ca9424bd2a934 mbs2/SRPMS/tomcat-7.0.59-1.mbs2.src.rpm _______________________________________________________________________ To upgrade automatically use MandrivaUpdate or urpmi.

Description: Red Hat JBoss Data Virtualization is a lean data integration solution that provides easy, real-time, and unified data access across disparate sources to multiple applications and users. JBoss Data Virtualization makes data spread across physically distinct systems-such as multiple databases, XML files, and even Hadoop systems-appear as a set of tables in a local database. This roll up patch serves as a cumulative upgrade for Red Hat JBoss Data Virtualization 6.0.0. It includes various bug fixes, which are listed in the README file included with the patch files. The following security issues are also fixed with this release, descriptions of which can be found on the respective CVE pages linked in the References section. CVE-2014-0096 Information Disclosure Severity: Important Vendor: The Apache Software Foundation Versions Affected: - Apache Tomcat 8.0.0-RC1 to 8.0.3 - Apache Tomcat 7.0.0 to 7.0.52 - Apache Tomcat 6.0.0 to 6.0.39 Description: The default servlet allows web applications to define (at multiple levels) an XSLT to be used to format a directory listing. When running under a security manager, the processing of these was not subject to the same constraints as the web application. Mitigation: Users of affected versions should apply one of the following mitigations - Upgrade to Apache Tomcat 8.0.5 or later (8.0.4 contains the fix but was not released) - Upgrade to Apache Tomcat 7.0.53 or later - Upgrade to Apache Tomcat 6.0.41 or later (6.0.40 contains the fix but was not released) Credit: This issue was identified by the Tomcat security team. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Note: the current version of the following document is available here: https://h20564.www2.hpe.com/portal/site/hpsc/public/kb/ docDisplay?docId=emr_na-c04851013 SUPPORT COMMUNICATION - SECURITY BULLETIN Document ID: c04851013 Version: 1 HPSBOV03503 rev.1 - HP OpenVMS CSWS_JAVA running Tomcat, Multiple Remote Vulnerabilities NOTICE: The information in this Security Bulletin should be acted upon as soon as possible.

Summary: An update for the Apache Tomcat 6 component for Red Hat JBoss Web Server 2.0.1 that fixes three security issues is now available from the Red Hat Customer Portal. The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having Moderate security impact. Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base scores, which give detailed severity ratings, are available for each vulnerability from the CVE links in the References section. 2. Description: Red Hat JBoss Web Server is a fully integrated and certified set of components for hosting Java web applications. It is comprised of the Apache HTTP Server, the Apache Tomcat Servlet container, Apache Tomcat Connector (mod_jk), JBoss HTTP Connector (mod_cluster), Hibernate, and the Tomcat Native library. It was discovered that Apache Tomcat did not limit the length of chunk sizes when using chunked transfer encoding. A remote attacker could use this flaw to perform a denial of service attack against Tomcat by streaming an unlimited quantity of data, leading to excessive consumption of server resources. (CVE-2014-0075) It was found that Apache Tomcat did not check for overflowing values when parsing request content length headers. A remote attacker could use this flaw to perform an HTTP request smuggling attack on a Tomcat server located behind a reverse proxy that processed the content length header correctly. (CVE-2014-0099) It was found that the org.apache.catalina.servlets.DefaultServlet implementation in Apache Tomcat allowed the definition of XML External Entities (XXEs) in provided XSLTs. A malicious application could use this to circumvent intended security restrictions to disclose sensitive information. (CVE-2014-0096) The CVE-2014-0075 issue was discovered by David Jorm of Red Hat Product Security. All users of Red Hat JBoss Web Server 2.0.1 as provided from the Red Hat Customer Portal are advised to apply this update. The Red Hat JBoss Web Server process must be restarted for the update to take effect. 3. Solution: The References section of this erratum contains a download link (you must log in to download the update). Before applying the update, back up your existing Red Hat JBoss Web Server installation (including all applications and configuration files). 4.
