Vulnerability from csaf_redhat - Published: 2013-03-14 16:40 - Updated: 2024-11-22 06:40
Summary
Red Hat Security Advisory: jbossweb security update
Severity
Moderate
Notes
Topic: An update for JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 6.0.1 which fixes multiple security issues is now available from the Red Hat Customer Portal. The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having moderate security impact. Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base scores, which give detailed severity ratings, are available for each vulnerability from the CVE links in the References section.
Details: JBoss Web is the web container, based on Apache Tomcat, in JBoss Enterprise Application Platform. It provides a single deployment platform for the JavaServer Pages (JSP) and Java Servlet technologies. It was found that sending a request without a session identifier to a protected resource could bypass the Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) prevention filter in JBoss Web. A remote attacker could use this flaw to perform CSRF attacks against applications that rely on the CSRF prevention filter and do not contain internal mitigation for CSRF. (CVE-2012-4431) Multiple weaknesses were found in the JBoss Web DIGEST authentication implementation, effectively reducing the security normally provided by DIGEST authentication. A remote attacker could use these flaws to perform replay attacks in some circumstances. (CVE-2012-5885, CVE-2012-5886, CVE-2012-5887) Warning: Before applying this update, back up your existing JBoss Enterprise Application Platform installation and deployed applications. All users of JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 6.0.1 as provided from the Red Hat Customer Portal are advised to apply this update.

CVE-2012-4431

org/apache/catalina/filters/CsrfPreventionFilter.java in Apache Tomcat 6.x before 6.0.36 and 7.x before 7.0.32 allows remote attackers to bypass the cross-site request forgery (CSRF) protection mechanism via a request that lacks a session identifier.

CWE-352 - Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF)
Vendor Fix The References section of this erratum contains a download link (you must log in to download the update). Before applying this update, back up your existing JBoss Enterprise Application Platform installation and deployed applications. The JBoss server process must be restarted for this update to take effect. https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2013:0648
CVE-2012-5885

The replay-countermeasure functionality in the HTTP Digest Access Authentication implementation in Apache Tomcat 5.5.x before 5.5.36, 6.x before 6.0.36, and 7.x before 7.0.30 tracks cnonce (aka client nonce) values instead of nonce (aka server nonce) and nc (aka nonce-count) values, which makes it easier for remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions by sniffing the network for valid requests, a different vulnerability than CVE-2011-1184.

CVE-2012-5886

The HTTP Digest Access Authentication implementation in Apache Tomcat 5.5.x before 5.5.36, 6.x before 6.0.36, and 7.x before 7.0.30 caches information about the authenticated user within the session state, which makes it easier for remote attackers to bypass authentication via vectors related to the session ID.

CVE-2012-5887

The HTTP Digest Access Authentication implementation in Apache Tomcat 5.5.x before 5.5.36, 6.x before 6.0.36, and 7.x before 7.0.30 does not properly check for stale nonce values in conjunction with enforcement of proper credentials, which makes it easier for remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions by sniffing the network for valid requests.
