Code injection

It was found that CloudForms does not verify that the server hostname matches the domain name in the certificate when using a custom CA and communicating with Red Hat Virtualization RHEV and OpenShift. This would allow an attacker to spoof RHEV or OpenShift systems and potentially harvest sensiti...

apache-cxf: TLS hostname verification does not work correctly with com.sun.net.ssl.*

It was discovered that when Apache CXF is configured to use the system property com.sun.net.ssl.internal.www.protocol ,it uses reflection to make the HostnameVerifier work with old com.sun.net.ssl.HostnameVerifier interface. Although the CXF implementation throws an exception, which is caught in...

UBUNTU-CVE-2018-8034

The host name verification when using TLS with the WebSocket client was missing. It is now enabled by default. Versions Affected: Apache Tomcat 9.0.0.M1 to 9.0.9, 8.5.0 to 8.5.31, 8.0.0.RC1 to 8.0.52, and 7.0.35 to 7.0.88...

Insecure Defaults

tomcat-websocket is vulnerable to missing hostname verification. The application does not verify the hostname with a client when establishing a TLS connection through the websocket, allowing a malicious user to impersonate a different host machine...

CVE-2018-8039

It is possible to configure Apache CXF to use the com.sun.net.ssl implementation via 'System.setProperty"java.protocol.handler.pkgs", "com.sun.net.ssl.internal.www.protocol";'. When this system property is set, CXF uses some reflection to try to make the HostnameVerifier work with the old...

CVE-2018-8039

CVE-2018-8039: Apache CXF could allow a remote attacker to conduct a man‑in‑the‑middle attack due to TLS hostname verification not working when using com.sun.net.ssl. In CXF versions prior to 3.2.5 and 3.1.16 the exception is not properly propagated, leaving clients vulnerable. IBM/Oracle/Red Hat...

Hostname Verification Bypass

Apache CXF is vulnerable to hostname verification bypass. The vulnerability exists when CXF is used with the com.sun.net.ssl stack, leading to an error in TLS hostname verification which make CXF clients susceptible to man-in-the-middle attack...

Apache CXF CVE-2018-8039 TLS Hostname Verification Security Bypass Vulnerability

Description Apache CXF is prone to a security-bypass vulnerability. Successfully exploiting this issue may allow attackers to obtain sensitive information by conducting a man-in-the-middle attack. This may lead to other attacks. The following versions of product are vulnerable: Apache CXF 3.1.16...

CVE-2018-8970

The intx509paramsethosts function in lib/libcrypto/x509/x509vpm.c in LibreSSL 2.7.0 before 2.7.1 does not support a certain special case of a zero name length, which causes silent omission of hostname verification, and consequently allows man-in-the-middle attackers to spoof servers and obtain...
