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 Denial of Service (DoS) in the form of improper ETag prefix validation when parsing ETags from the If-Match or If-None-Match request headers. An attacker can exploit this vulnerability to cause denial of service by sending a maliciously crafted conditional HTTP request.

Workaround

Users of older, unsupported versions could enforce a size limit on If-Match and If-None-Match headers, e.g. through a Filter.

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.springframework:spring-web to version 5.3.38, 6.0.23, 6.1.12 or higher.

Overview

com.fasterxml.jackson.core:jackson-databind is a library which contains the general-purpose data-binding functionality and tree-model for Jackson Data Processor.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Denial of Service (DoS) when using JDK serialization to serialize and deserialize JsonNode values. It is possible for the attacker to send a 4-byte length payload, with a value of Integer.MAX_VALUE , that will eventually cause large buffer allocation and out of heap memory.

Overview

com.fasterxml.jackson.core:jackson-core is a Core Jackson abstractions, basic JSON streaming API implementation

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Information Exposure due to the JsonLocation._appendSourceDesc method. An attacker can access up to 500 bytes of unintended memory content by exploiting exception messages that incorrectly read from the beginning of a byte array instead of the logical payload start.

Workaround

This vulnerability can be mitigated by disabling exception message exposure to clients to avoid returning parsing exception messages in HTTP responses and/or disabling source inclusion in exceptions to prevent Jackson from embedding any source content in exception messages, avoiding leakage.

PoC

byte[] buffer = new byte[1000];
System.arraycopy("SECRET".getBytes(), 0, buffer, 0, 6);
System.arraycopy("{ \"bad\": }".getBytes(), 0, buffer, 700, 10);

JsonFactory factory = new JsonFactory();
JsonParser parser = factory.createParser(buffer, 700, 20);
parser.nextToken(); // throws exception

// Exception message will include "SECRET"

Remediation

Upgrade com.fasterxml.jackson.core:jackson-core to version 2.13.0-rc1 or higher.
