"The remote MiracleLinux 7 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the
AXSA:2016-1116:02 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-2015-5174
Directory traversal vulnerability in RequestUtil.java in Apache Tomcat
6.x before 6.0.45, 7.x before 7.0.65, and 8.x before 8.0.27 allows
remote authenticated users to bypass intended SecurityManager
restrictions and list a parent directory via a /.. (slash dot dot) in
a pathname used by a web application in a getResource,
getResourceAsStream, or getResourcePaths call, as demonstrated by the
$CATALINA_BASE/webapps directory.
CVE-2015-5345
The Mapper component in Apache Tomcat 6.x before 6.0.45, 7.x before
7.0.68, 8.x before 8.0.30, and 9.x before 9.0.0.M2 processes redirects
before considering security constraints and Filters, which allows
remote attackers to determine the existence of a directory via a URL
that lacks a trailing / (slash) character.
CVE-2015-5351
The (1) Manager and (2) Host Manager applications in Apache Tomcat 7.x
before 7.0.68, 8.x before 8.0.31, and 9.x before 9.0.0.M2 establish
sessions and send CSRF tokens for arbitrary new requests, which allows
remote attackers to bypass a CSRF protection mechanism by using a
token.
CVE-2016-0706
Apache Tomcat 6.x before 6.0.45, 7.x before 7.0.68, 8.x before 8.0.31,
and 9.x before 9.0.0.M2 does not place
org.apache.catalina.manager.StatusManagerServlet on the
org/apache/catalina/core/RestrictedServlets.properties list, which
allows remote authenticated users to bypass intended SecurityManager
restrictions and read arbitrary HTTP requests, and consequently
discover session ID values, via a crafted web application.
CVE-2016-0714
The session-persistence implementation in Apache Tomcat 6.x before
6.0.45, 7.x before 7.0.68, 8.x before 8.0.31, and 9.x before 9.0.0.M2
mishandles session attributes, which allows remote authenticated users
to bypass intended SecurityManager restrictions and execute arbitrary
code in a privileged context via a web application that places a
crafted object in a session.
CVE-2016-0763
The setGlobalContext method in
org/apache/naming/factory/ResourceLinkFactory.java in Apache Tomcat
7.x before 7.0.68, 8.x before 8.0.31, and 9.x before 9.0.0.M3 does not
consider whether ResourceLinkFactory.setGlobalContext callers are
authorized, which allows remote authenticated users to bypass intended
SecurityManager restrictions and read or write to arbitrary
application data, or cause a denial of service (application
disruption), via a web application that sets a crafted global context.
CVE-2016-3092
The MultipartStream class in Apache Commons Fileupload before 1.3.2,
as used in Apache Tomcat 7.x before 7.0.70, 8.x before 8.0.36, 8.5.x
before 8.5.3, and 9.x before 9.0.0.M7 and other products, allows
remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via a
long boundary string.
The following packages have been upgraded to a newer upstream version: tomcat (7.0.69).
Additional Changes:
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
