CVE-2020-9484

TITLE

Apache Tomcat Code problem vulnerability

DESCRIPTION

When using Apache Tomcat versions 10.0.0-M1 to 10.0.0-M4, 9.0.0.M1 to 9.0.34, 8.5.0 to 8.5.54 and 7.0.0 to 7.0.103 if a) an attacker is able to control the contents and name of a file on the server; and b) the server is configured to use the PersistenceManager with a FileStore; and c) the PersistenceManager is configured with sessionAttributeValueClassNameFilter="null" (the default unless a SecurityManager is used) or a sufficiently lax filter to allow the attacker provided object to be deserialized; and d) the attacker knows the relative file path from the storage location used by FileStore to the file the attacker has control over; then, using a specifically crafted request, the attacker will be able to trigger remote code execution via deserialization of the file under their control. Note that all of conditions a) to d) must be true for the attack to succeed. The program implements support for Servlet and JavaServer Page (JSP). The following products and versions are affected: Apache Tomcat 10.0.0-M1 to 10.0.0-M4, 9.0.0.0.M1 to 9.0.34, 8.5.0 to 8.5.54, 7.0.0 to Version 7.0.103. A deserialization flaw exists in Apache Tomcat's use of a FileStore. The highest threat from the vulnerability is to data confidentiality and integrity as well as system availability. (CVE-2020-9484) The fix for CVE-2020-9484 was incomplete. to 7.0.107 with a configuration edge case that was highly unlikely to be used, the Tomcat instance was still vulnerable to CVE-2020-9494. Note that both the previously published prerequisites for CVE-2020-9484 and the previously published mitigations for CVE-2020-9484 also apply to this issue. (CVE-2021-25329). The purpose of this text-only errata is to inform you about the security issues fixed in this release. Solution: Before applying the update, back up your existing installation, including all applications, configuration files, databases and database settings, and so on. Installation instructions are available from the Fuse 7.9.0 product documentation page: https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_fuse/7.9/ 4.

A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to execute arbitrary code. This issue only affected tomcat8 for Ubuntu 18.04 LTS (CVE-2020-9484) It was discovered that Tomcat incorrectly handled certain HTTP/2 connection requests. A remote attacker could use this issue to obtain wrong responses possibly containing sensitive information. This issue only affected tomcat8 for Ubuntu 18.04 LTS (CVE-2021-25122) Thomas Wozenilek discovered that Tomcat incorrectly handled certain TLS packets. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service. This issue only affected tomcat8 for Ubuntu 18.04 LTS (CVE-2021-41079) Trung Pham discovered that a race condition existed in Tomcat when handling session files with FileStore. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to execute arbitrary code. This issue affected tomcat8 for Ubuntu 16.04 LTS and Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, and tomcat9 for Ubuntu 18.04 LTS and Ubuntu 20.04 LTS (CVE-2022-23181) It was discovered that Tomcat's documentation incorrectly stated that EncryptInterceptor provided availability protection when running over an untrusted network. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service even if EncryptInterceptor was being used. This issue affected tomcat8 for Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, and tomcat9 for Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, Ubuntu 20.04 LTS and Ubuntu 22.04 LTS (CVE-2022-29885) Update instructions: The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following package versions: Ubuntu 22.04 LTS tomcat9-docs 9.0.58-1ubuntu0.1+esm2 Available with Ubuntu Pro Ubuntu 20.04 LTS libtomcat9-java 9.0.31-1ubuntu0.6 tomcat9 9.0.31-1ubuntu0.6 tomcat9-docs 9.0.31-1ubuntu0.6 Ubuntu 18.04 LTS libtomcat8-java 8.5.39-1ubuntu1~18.04.3+esm2 Available with Ubuntu Pro libtomcat9-java 9.0.16-3ubuntu0.18.04.2+esm2 Available with Ubuntu Pro tomcat8 8.5.39-1ubuntu1~18.04.3+esm2 Available with Ubuntu Pro tomcat8-docs 8.5.39-1ubuntu1~18.04.3+esm2 Available with Ubuntu Pro tomcat9 9.0.16-3ubuntu0.18.04.2+esm2 Available with Ubuntu Pro tomcat9-docs 9.0.16-3ubuntu0.18.04.2+esm2 Available with Ubuntu Pro Ubuntu 16.04 LTS libtomcat8-java 8.0.32-1ubuntu1.13+esm1 Available with Ubuntu Pro tomcat8 8.0.32-1ubuntu1.13+esm1 Available with Ubuntu Pro In general, a standard system update will make all the necessary changes
