Security Bulletin
This security bulletin contains information about 2 vulnerabilities.
1) Information disclosure
EUVDB-ID: #VU80760
Risk: Medium
CVSSv4.0: 6.6 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green]
CVE-ID: CVE-2023-41081
CWE-ID:
CWE-200 - Information exposure
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to excessive data output by the application when a configuration included "JkOptions +ForwardDirectories" but the configuration did not provide explicit mounts for all possible proxied requests. A remote attacker can view status worker and possibly bypass security constraints configured in httpd.
MitigationUpdate the affected package apache2-mod_jk to the latest version.

2) Incorrect default permissions
EUVDB-ID: #VU97659
Risk: Low
CVSSv4.0: 1.1 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:L/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear]
CVE-ID: CVE-2024-46544
CWE-ID:
CWE-276 - Incorrect Default Permissions
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a local user to gain access to sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to incorrect default permissions for the memory mapped file configured by the JkShmFile directive on Unix like systems. A local user can view or modify the contents of the shared memory containing mod_jk configuration and status information, which can lead to information disclosure or denial of service.
Update the affected package apache2-mod_jk to the latest version.
