security advisorymoderatedirectory traversalRed Hat Developer Suite: RHSA-2008:0195-01 Moderate Session Hijack Risk
Updated tomcat packages that fix multiple security issues are now available for Red Hat Developer Suite 3. This update has been rated as having moderate security impact by the Red Hat Security Response Team.. ==================================================================== Red Hat Security Advisory Synopsis: Moderate: tomcat security update Advisory ID: RHSA-2008:0195-01 Product: Red Hat Developer Suite v.3 Advisory URL: https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2008:0195.html Issue date: 2008-04-28 Keywords: Security CVE Names: CVE-2007-3382 CVE-2007-3385 CVE-2007-5342 CVE-2007-5461 ==================================================================== 1. Summary: Updated tomcat packages that fix multiple security issues are now available for Red Hat Developer Suite 3. This update has been rated as having moderate security impact by the Red Hat Security Response Team. 2. Relevant releases/architectures: Red Hat Developer Suite v.3 (AS v.4) - noarch 3. Description: Tomcat is a servlet container for Java Servlet and Java Server Pages technologies. Tomcat was found treating single quote characters -- ' -- as delimiters in cookies. This could allow remote attackers to obtain sensitive information, such as session IDs, for session hijacking attacks (CVE-2007-3382). It was reported Tomcat did not properly handle the following character sequence in a cookie: \" (a backslash followed by a double-quote). It was possible remote attackers could use this failure to obtain sensitive information, such as session IDs, for session hijacking attacks (CVE-2007-3385). A directory traversal vulnerability existed in the Apache Tomcat webdav servlet. This allowed remote attackers to remote authenticated users to read accessible to the local user running the tomcat process (CVE-2007-5461). The default security policy in the JULI logging component did not restrict access permissions tofiles. This could be misused by untrusted web applications to access and write arbitrary files in the context of the tomcat process (CVE-2007-5342). Users of Tomcat should update to these erratum packages, which contain backported patches and are not vulnerable to these issues. 4. Solution: Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released errata relevant to your system have been applied. This update is available via Red Hat Network. Details on how to use the Red Hat Network to apply this update are available at 5. Bugs fixed (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/): 247972 - CVE-2007-3382 tomcat handling of cookies 247976 - CVE-2007-3385 tomcat handling of cookie values 333791 - CVE-2007-5461 Absolute path traversal Apache Tomcat WEBDAV 427216 - CVE-2007-5342 Apache Tomcat's default security policy is too open 6.
