CVE-2017-5648
CVSS v3.1
9.1
Critical
| Vector | AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Apache Tomcat versions 9.0.0.M1 through 9.0.0.M17
Apache Tomcat versions 8.5.0 through 8.5.11
Apache Tomcat versions 8.0.0.RC1 through 8.0.41
Apache Tomcat versions 7.0.0 through 7.0.75
Description
The issue arises from some calls to application listeners not using the appropriate facade object. When an untrusted application is run under a SecurityManager, it can retain a reference to the request or response object, allowing it to access and/or modify information associated with another web application.
Recommendations
For Apache Tomcat versions 9.0.0.M1 through 9.0.0.M17, update to a version that uses the appropriate facade object for application listeners.
For Apache Tomcat versions 8.5.0 through 8.5.11, update to a version that uses the appropriate facade object for application listeners.
For Apache Tomcat versions 8.0.0.RC1 through 8.0.41, update to a version that uses the appropriate facade object for application listeners.
For Apache Tomcat versions 7.0.0 through 7.0.75, update to a version that uses the appropriate facade object for application listeners.
As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to sensitive information when running untrusted applications under a SecurityManager.
