Description
This security bulletin contains information about 14 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-43980)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to incorrect implementation of blocking reads and writes. A remote attacker can trigger a concurrency bug and force client connections to share an Http11Processor instance resulting in responses, or part responses, to be received by the wrong client.
2) Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-51441)
The disclosed vulnerability allows a remote user to perform SSRF attacks.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input in the service admin HTTP API. A remote user can send a specially crafted HTTP request and trick the application to initiate requests to arbitrary systems.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker gain access to sensitive data, located in the local network or send malicious requests to other servers from the vulnerable system.
3) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-21733)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to excessive data output by the application when processing incomplete HTTP POST requests. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted HTTP POST request to the server and obtain data from a previous request from another user.
4) Inconsistent interpretation of HTTP requests (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-45648)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform HTTP request smuggling attacks.
The vulnerability exists due to improper validation when parsing HTTP trailer headers. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted HTTP request to the server and smuggle arbitrary HTTP headers.
Successful exploitation of vulnerability may allow an attacker to poison HTTP cache and perform phishing attacks.
5) Resource management error (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-42795)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to improper management of internal resources within the application when recycling various internal objects. A remote attacker can force Tomcat to skip some parts of the recycling process leading to information leaking from the current request/response to the next.
6) Infinite loop (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-41079)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to infinite loop when processing certain TLS packets. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted packet to the application, consume all available system resources and cause denial of service conditions.
Successful exploitation of vulnerability requires that Apache Tomcat is configured to use NIO+OpenSSL or NIO2+OpenSSL for TLS.
7) Data Handling (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-29885)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform DoS attack.
The vulnerability exists due to an error in documentation for the EncryptInterceptor, which incorrectly stated that it enabled Tomcat clustering to run over an untrusted network. A remote attacker can perform a denial of service attack against the exposed EncryptInterceptor.
8) Error Handling (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-25762)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to an error when handling WebSocket connections. If a web application sends a WebSocket message concurrently with the
WebSocket connection closing, it is possible that the application will
continue to use the socket after it has been closed. As a result, subsequent connections can use the
same object concurrently and share data and/or other errors.
9) Open redirect (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-41080)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to redirect victims to arbitrary URL.
The vulnerability exists due to improper sanitization of user-supplied data, if the ROOT (default) web application is configured to use FORM authentication. A remote attacker can create a link that leads to a trusted website, however, when clicked, redirects the victim to arbitrary domain.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker to perform a phishing attack and steal potentially sensitive information.
10) Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-28709)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to an incomplete fox for #VU72427 (CVE-2023-24998). If non-default HTTP connector settings were used such that the maxParameterCount could be reached using query string parameters and a request was submitted that supplied exactly maxParameterCount parameters in the query string, the limit for uploaded request parts could be bypassed. A remote attacker can initiate a series of uploads and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.11) Inconsistent interpretation of HTTP requests (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-42252)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform HTTP request smuggling attacks.
The vulnerability exists due to improper validation of HTTP requests. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted HTTP request to the server and smuggle arbitrary HTTP headers via an invalid
Content-Length header.
Successful exploitation of vulnerability may allow an attacker to poison HTTP cache and perform phishing attacks but requires Tomcat to be configured to ignore invalid HTTP headers via setting
rejectIllegalHeader to false (not the default configuration).
12) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-34981)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to HTTP headers are not set in a response. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted HTTP request and gain unauthorized access to sensitive information on the system.
13) Sensitive cookie in HTTPS session without Secure attribute (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-28708)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to Apache Tomcat does not set the "Secure" attribute for the JSESSIONID session cookie when using the RemoteIpFilter with requests received from a reverse proxy via HTTP that include the X-Forwarded-Proto header set to https. A remote attacker can force the application to transmit cookie via an insecure channel and intercept it.
14) Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-24998)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to Apache Commons FileUpload does not limit the number of request parts. A remote attacker can initiate a series of uploads and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
