Overview

org.apache.tomcat.embed:tomcat-embed-core is a Core Tomcat implementation.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling in the unwrap() function in net/SecureNio2Channel.java, during a TLS handshake. Under certain configurations using TLS 1.3, an attacker can trigger an OutOfMemoryError.

Remediation

Upgrade org.apache.tomcat.embed:tomcat-embed-core to version 9.0.90, 10.1.25, 11.0.0-M21 or higher.

Overview

org.apache.tomcat.embed:tomcat-embed-core is a Core Tomcat implementation.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Insufficient Session Expiration due to an infinite timeout being assigned to an open connection improperly, in http2/Stream.java. An attacker can force this situation by sending an HTTP/2 stream with excessive headers, causing an out-of-memory error or exhausting maxConnections.

Remediation

Upgrade org.apache.tomcat.embed:tomcat-embed-core to version 9.0.90, 10.1.25, 11.0.0-M21 or higher.

Overview

org.springframework:spring-webmvc is a package that provides Model-View-Controller (MVC) architecture and ready components that can be used to develop flexible and loosely coupled web applications.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Path Traversal via the WebMvc.fn and WebFlux.fn frameworks. An attacker can access any file on the file system that is also accessible to the process in which the Spring application is running by crafting malicious HTTP requests.

Note:

This is only exploitable if the web application uses RouterFunctions to serve static resources and resource handling is explicitly configured with a FileSystemResource location.

Workaround

This vulnerability can be mitigated by using the Spring Security HTTP Firewall or running the application on Tomcat or Jetty.

Remediation

Upgrade org.springframework:spring-webmvc to version 6.1.13 or higher.

Overview

org.apache.tomcat.embed:tomcat-embed-core is a Core Tomcat implementation.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Denial of Service (DoS) when processing a crafted HTTP/2 request. If the request exceeded any of the configured limits for headers, the associated HTTP/2 stream was not reset until after all of the headers had been processed.

Details

Denial of Service (DoS) describes a family of attacks, all aimed at making a system inaccessible to its intended and legitimate users.

Unlike other vulnerabilities, DoS attacks usually do not aim at breaching security. Rather, they are focused on making websites and services unavailable to genuine users resulting in downtime.

One popular Denial of Service vulnerability is DDoS (a Distributed Denial of Service), an attack that attempts to clog network pipes to the system by generating a large volume of traffic from many machines.

When it comes to open source libraries, DoS vulnerabilities allow attackers to trigger such a crash or crippling of the service by using a flaw either in the application code or from the use of open source libraries.

Two common types of DoS vulnerabilities:

• High CPU/Memory Consumption- An attacker sending crafted requests that could cause the system to take a disproportionate amount of time to process. For example, commons-fileupload:commons-fileupload.

• Crash - An attacker sending crafted requests that could cause the system to crash. For Example, npm ws package

Remediation

Upgrade org.apache.tomcat.embed:tomcat-embed-core to version 8.5.99, 9.0.86, 10.1.19, 1.0.0-M17 or higher.

Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Denial of Service (DoS) when a WebSocket client can keep a WebSocket connection open which is leading to increased resource consumption.

Overview

org.springframework:spring-core is a core package within the spring-framework that contains multiple classes and utilities.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Uncontrolled Resource Consumption ('Resource Exhaustion') via specially crafted HTTP requests. An attacker can cause a denial-of-service condition by sending malicious requests that exploit this issue.

Notes:

This is only exploitable if the application uses Spring MVC and Spring Security 6.1.6+ or 6.2.1+ is on the classpath.

Typically, Spring Boot applications need the org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-web and org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-security dependencies to meet all conditions.

Remediation

Upgrade org.springframework:spring-core to version 6.0.16, 6.1.3 or higher.

Overview

org.springframework:spring-web is a package that provides a comprehensive programming and configuration model for modern Java-based enterprise applications - on any kind of deployment platform.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Open Redirect when UriComponentsBuilder parses an externally provided URL, and the application subsequently uses that URL. If it contains hierarchical components such as path, query, and fragment it may evade validation.

Remediation

Upgrade org.springframework:spring-web to version 5.3.32, 6.0.17, 6.1.4 or higher.

Overview

org.springframework:spring-web is a package that provides a comprehensive programming and configuration model for modern Java-based enterprise applications - on any kind of deployment platform.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Open Redirect when using UriComponentsBuilder to parse an externally provided URL and perform validation checks on the host of the parsed URL.

Note: This is the same as CVE-2024-22243, but with different input.

Remediation

Upgrade org.springframework:spring-web to version 5.3.33, 6.0.18, 6.1.5 or higher.
