Description
This security bulletin contains information about 1 security vulnerability.
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.
Remediation
Install update from vendor's website.
