Summary: .. and WEB-INF are allowed in pathInfo assignment
Product: Tomcat 6
Version: 6.0.18
Platform: PC
OS/Version: Windows Vista
Status: NEW
Severity: minor
Priority: P2
Component: Catalina
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
Apache Tomcat 4.1.0 through 4.1.39, 5.5.0 through 5.5.27, 6.0.0 through 6.0.18,
and possibly earlier versions normalizes the target pathname before filtering
the query string when using the RequestDispatcher method, which allows remote
attackers to bypass intended access restrictions and conduct directory
traversal attacks via .. (dot dot) sequences and the WEB-INF directory in a
Request.

org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationDispatcher.java
public ApplicationDispatcher
(Wrapper wrapper, String requestURI, String servletPath,
String pathInfo, String queryString, String name) {
super();
// Save all of our configuration parameters
this.wrapper = wrapper;
this.context = (Context) wrapper.getParent();
this.requestURI = requestURI;
this.servletPath = servletPath;
//change
// this.pathInfo = pathInfo;
//to
Pattern p = Pattern.compile("\\..");
Matcher m = p.matcher(pathinfo);
if (m.find())
System.err.println("pathinfo should not contain dot dot");
//Checks for pathinfo that start with
//WEB-INF and prints a message if it does.
p = Pattern.compile("WEB-INF");
m = p.matcher(pathinfo);
if (m.find())
{
System.err.println("pathinfo should not contain WEB-INF ");
}
//everything in kitchen sink except for .. or WEB-INF
p = Pattern.compile("[a-zA-Z0-9-[\\..][WEB-INF]];
m = p.matcher(pathinfo);
boolean result = m.find();
StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer();;
while (m.find())
{
sb.append(m.group());
}
// Add the last segment of input to the new String
m.appendTail(sb);
this.pathInfo = sb.toString();
//end mod
this.queryString = queryString;
this.name = name;
if (wrapper instanceof StandardWrapper)
this.support = ((StandardWrapper) wrapper).getInstanceSupport();
else
this.support = new InstanceSupport(wrapper);
}
been a while since i worked with regexp so tweaking is appreciated
