SB2026051592 - openEuler update for tomcat

Description

This security bulletin contains information about 7 vulnerabilities.

1) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-41284)

CWE-ID: CWE-400 - Resource exhaustion

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service.

The vulnerability exists due to uncontrolled resource consumption in WebDAV LOCK and PROPFIND handling when processing request bodies. A remote attacker can send a large request body to cause a denial of service.

The affected requests are available to unauthenticated users.

2) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-41293)

CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to trigger unexpected application behavior.

The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation in HTTP/2 request header handling when exposing header values through the Servlet API. A remote attacker can send crafted HTTP/2 request headers to trigger unexpected application behavior.

This may affect applications that assume header values exposed through the Servlet API are specification compliant.

3) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-42498)

CWE-ID: CWE-200 - Exposure of sensitive information to an unauthorized actor

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:L/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear

The vulnerability allows a remote user to disclose authentication headers to a redirect target host.

The vulnerability exists due to exposure of sensitive information in Tomcat's WebSocket client when following a redirected WebSocket request after authentication. A remote user can trigger a redirect after authentication to disclose authentication headers to a redirect target host.

The issue occurs only if a WebSocket request is redirected after authentication.

4) Improper Authentication (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-43512)

CWE-ID: CWE-287 - Improper Authentication

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to authenticate as an unknown user.

The vulnerability exists due to improper authentication in the DIGEST authenticator when processing authentication for users not known to the configured Realm. A remote attacker can submit the password "null" for an unknown user to authenticate as an unknown user.

This occurs only when DIGEST authentication is configured.

5) Improper Handling of Case Sensitivity (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-43513)

CWE-ID: CWE-178 - Improper Handling of Case Sensitivity

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to weaken brute-force protection against a user's password.

The vulnerability exists due to improper input handling in LockOutRealm when processing case-insensitive user names. A remote attacker can vary the case of a user name during authentication attempts to weaken brute-force protection against a user's password.

This affects Realms where user names are treated as case insensitive.

6) Information Exposure Through Timing Discrepancy (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-43514)

CWE-ID: CWE-208 - Information Exposure Through Timing Discrepancy

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:A/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to disclose the AJP secret.

The vulnerability exists due to observable timing discrepancy in AJP secret comparison when validating the AJP secret. A remote attacker can perform a timing attack to disclose the AJP secret.

Exploitation is limited to an attacker on the local network.

7) Improper access control (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-43515)

CWE-ID: CWE-284 - Improper Access Control

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass security constraints.

The vulnerability exists due to improper access control in HTTP method constraint processing when evaluating multiple security constraints for the same extension pattern. A remote attacker can send a request using an improperly constrained HTTP method to bypass security constraints.
