Description
This security bulletin contains information about 5 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-2047)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass implemented security restrictions.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input when parsing invalid URIs such as http://localhost;/path. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application and bypass implemented security restrictions, as the Jetty's HttpClient, and Jetty's ProxyServlet / AsyncProxyServlet / AsyncMiddleManServlet will wrongly interpret an authority of such URI as the one with a hostname.
2) Improper access control (CVE-ID: CVE-2014-0107)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain unauthorized access to otherwise restricted functionality.
The vulnerability exists due to TransformerFactory in Apache Xalan-Java does not properly restrict access to certain properties when FEATURE_SECURE_PROCESSING is enabled. A remote attacker can bypass implemented security restrictions and load arbitrary classes or access external resources via a crafted (1) xalan:content-header, (2) xalan:entities, (3) xslt:content-header, or (4) xslt:entities property, or a Java property that is bound to the XSLT 1.0 system-property function.
3) Security features bypass (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-34034)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass security restrictions.
The vulnerability exists due to the usage of "**" as a pattern in Spring Security configuration for WebFlux creates a mismatch in pattern matching between Spring Security and Spring WebFlux. A remote unauthenticated attacker can trigger the vulnerability to bypass security restrictions.
4) Inefficient Algorithmic Complexity (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-25881)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to regular expression denial of service that occurs when the server reads the cache policy from the request using this library. A remote unauthenticated attacker can send malicious request header values to the server and perform a denial of service attack.
5) Path traversal (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-37460)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform directory traversal attacks.
The vulnerability exists due to input validation error when processing directory traversal sequences. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted HTTP request and read arbitrary files on the system.
