"The remote MiracleLinux 4 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the
AXSA:2014-451:03 advisory.
Tomcat is the servlet container that is used in the official Reference
Implementation for the Java Servlet and JavaServer Pages technologies.
The Java Servlet and JavaServer Pages specifications are developed by
Sun under the Java Community Process.
Tomcat is developed in an open and participatory environment and
released under the Apache Software License version 2.0. Tomcat is intended
to be a collaboration of the best-of-breed developers from around the world.
Security issues fixed with this release:
CVE-2014-0075
Integer overflow in the parseChunkHeader function in
java/org/apache/coyote/http11/filters/ChunkedInputFilter.java in Apache Tomcat before 6.0.40, 7.x before
7.0.53, and 8.x before 8.0.4 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (resource consumption)
via a malformed chunk size in chunked transfer coding of a request during the streaming of data.
CVE-2014-0096
java/org/apache/catalina/servlets/DefaultServlet.java in the default servlet in Apache Tomcat before
6.0.40, 7.x before 7.0.53, and 8.x before 8.0.4 does not properly restrict XSLT stylesheets, which allows
remote attackers to bypass security-manager restrictions and read arbitrary files via a crafted web
application that provides an XML external entity declaration in conjunction with an entity reference,
related to an XML External Entity (XXE) issue.
CVE-2014-0099
Integer overflow in java/org/apache/tomcat/util/buf/Ascii.java in Apache Tomcat before 6.0.40, 7.x before
7.0.53, and 8.x before 8.0.4, when operated behind a reverse proxy, allows remote attackers to conduct
HTTP request smuggling attacks via a crafted Content-Length HTTP header.
fixed bugs:
* Previously, the CVE-2014-0050 issue contained redundant code, and remove the redundant code.
* Previously, the CVE-2013-4322 issue contained an invalid check that triggered a java.io.EOFException
while reading trailer headers for chunked requests. This update fixes the check.
Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the MiracleLinux security advisory.
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
