6) Information disclosure

EUVDB-ID: #VU13528

Risk: Low

CVSSv3.1: 4.6 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2017-7657

CWE-ID: CWE-200 - Information exposure

Exploit availability: No

Description

The disclosed vulnerability allows a remote attacker to obtain potentially sensitive information on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to improper handling of queries that do not match the dynamic URL pattern for webapps that use default error handling settings. A remote attacker can send a query that submits malicious input, trigger a java.nio.file.InvalidPathException message, which could allow the attacker to view sensitive information, such as the software installation path.

7) HTTP request smuggling attack

EUVDB-ID: #VU13529

Risk: Low

CVSSv3.1: 6.3 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2017-7658

CWE-ID: CWE-444 - Inconsistent Interpretation of HTTP Requests ('HTTP Request Smuggling')

Exploit availability: No

Description

The disclosed vulnerability allows a remote attacker to conduct an HTTP request smuggling attack on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to improper handling HTTP requests that contain more than one content-length header. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted HTTP request that contains a transfer-encoding header and a content-length header, cause the software and an upstream HTTP agent to misinterpret the boundary of the request and to poison the web cache on the system, which could be used to conduct further attacks.

Mitigation

Install update from vendor's website.

8) Security bypass

EUVDB-ID: #VU340

Risk: Medium

CVSSv3.1: 6.4 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2016-4800

CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass certain security restrictions.

The vulnerability exists due to an error within PathResource class when parsing URLs, which contains certain escaped characters. A remote unauthenticated attacker can bypass implemented security restrictions and gain access to protected resources (e.g. WEB-INF and META-INF folders and their contents) or bypass application filters or other restrictions, implemented in servlet configuration.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow an attacker to gain unauthorized access to otherwise protected resources.

10) Input validation error

EUVDB-ID: #VU65831

Risk: Low

CVSSv3.1: 3.2 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2022-2047

CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation

Exploit availability: No

Description

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.
