TITLE

Apache Tomcat Permission Licensing and Access Control Issue Vulnerability

DESCRIPTION

Apache Tomcat before 6.0.40, 7.x before 7.0.54, and 8.x before 8.0.6 does not properly constrain the class loader that accesses the XML parser used with an XSLT stylesheet, which allows remote attackers to (1) 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, or (2) read files associated with different web applications on a single Tomcat instance via a crafted web application. Apache Tomcat is prone to an information-disclosure vulnerability. An attacker can exploit this issue to gain access to sensitive information that may lead to further attacks. The following versions are vulnerable: Apache Tomcat 8.0.0-RC1 to 8.0.3 Apache Tomcat 7.0.0 to 7.0.53 Apache Tomcat 6.0.0 to 6.0.39. 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). The verification of md5 checksums and GPG signatures is performed automatically for you.

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. It was discovered that JBoss Web 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 JBoss Web by streaming an unlimited quantity of data, leading to excessive consumption of server resources. (CVE-2014-0075) It was found that JBoss Web 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 JBoss Web server located behind a reverse proxy that processed the content length header correctly. A malicious application could use this to circumvent intended security restrictions to disclose sensitive information. On update, the configuration files that have been locally modified will not be updated. The updated version of such files will be stored as the rpmnew files. Make sure to locate any such files after the update and merge any changes manually. ============================================================================ Ubuntu Security Notice USN-2654-1 June 25, 2015 tomcat7 vulnerabilities ============================================================================ A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives: - Ubuntu 15.04 - Ubuntu 14.10 - Ubuntu 14.04 LTS Summary: Several security issues were fixed in Tomcat. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to read arbitrary files. This issue only affected Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. This issue only affected Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. (CVE-2014-0227) It was discovered that Tomcat incorrectly handled HTTP responses occurring before the entire request body was finished being read. This issue only affected Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. (CVE-2014-0230) It was discovered that the Tomcat Expression Language (EL) implementation incorrectly handled accessible interfaces implemented by inaccessible classes. An attacker could possibly use this issue to bypass a SecurityManager protection mechanism. (CVE-2014-7810) Update instructions: The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following package versions: Ubuntu 15.04: libtomcat7-java 7.0.56-2ubuntu0.1 Ubuntu 14.10: libtomcat7-java 7.0.55-1ubuntu0.2 Ubuntu 14.04 LTS: libtomcat7-java 7.0.52-1ubuntu0.3 In general, a standard system update will make all the necessary changes. Solution: The References section of this erratum contains a download link (you must log in to download the update). For the oldstable distribution (wheezy), these problems have been fixed in version 6.0.45+dfsg-1~deb7u1. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 ===================================================================== Red Hat Security Advisory Synopsis: Low: tomcat security update Advisory ID: RHSA-2014:1034-01 Product: Red Hat Enterprise Linux Advisory URL: https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2014-1034.html Issue date: 2014-08-07 CVE Names: CVE-2014-0119 ===================================================================== 1. Summary: Updated tomcat packages that fix one security issue are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7. Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having Low security impact. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available from the CVE link in the References section. 2. Relevant releases/architectures: Red Hat Enterprise Linux Client (v. 7) - noarch Red Hat Enterprise Linux Client Optional (v. 7) - noarch Red Hat Enterprise Linux ComputeNode (v. 7) - noarch Red Hat Enterprise Linux ComputeNode Optional (v. 7) - noarch Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server (v. 7) - noarch Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server Optional (v. 7) - noarch Red Hat Enterprise Linux Workstation (v. 7) - noarch Red Hat Enterprise Linux Workstation Optional (v. 7) - noarch 3. Description: Apache Tomcat is a servlet container for the Java Servlet and JavaServer Pages (JSP) technologies. It was found that, in certain circumstances, it was possible for a malicious web application to replace the XML parsers used by Apache Tomcat to process XSLTs for the default servlet, JSP documents, tag library descriptors (TLDs), and tag plug-in configuration files. (CVE-2014-0119) All Tomcat users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which contain a backported patch to correct this issue. Tomcat must be restarted for this update to take effect. 4. Solution: Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata relevant to your system have been applied. This update is available via the Red Hat Network.
