From Red Hat Security Advisory 2015:1695 :

Updated jakarta-taglibs-standard packages that fix one security issue are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 and 7.

Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having Important security impact. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available from the CVE link in the References section.

jakarta-taglibs-standard is the Java Standard Tag Library (JSTL). This library is used in conjunction with Tomcat and Java Server Pages (JSP).

It was found that the Java Standard Tag Library (JSTL) allowed the processing of untrusted XML documents to utilize external entity references, which could access resources on the host system and, potentially, allowing arbitrary code execution. (CVE-2015-0254)

Note: jakarta-taglibs-standard users may need to take additional steps after applying this update. Detailed instructions on the additional steps can be found here :

https://access.redhat.com/solutions/1584363

All jakarta-taglibs-standard users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which contain a backported patch to correct this issue.
