Hey everyone,

I trust if you are responsible for a GeoServer instance you managed to
update in the last two weeks.

The details vulnerabilities mentioned are now available:

   - CVE-2024-36401
   
<https://github.com/geoserver/geoserver/security/advisories/GHSA-6jj6-gm7p-fcvv>:
Remote
   Code Execution (RCE) vulnerability in evaluating property name expressions
   - CVE-2024-34696
   
<https://github.com/geoserver/geoserver/security/advisories/GHSA-j59v-vgcr-hxvf>:
   GeoServer's Server Status shows sensitive environmental variables and Java
   properties
   - CVE-2024-24749
   
<https://github.com/geoserver/geoserver/security/advisories/GHSA-jhqx-5v5g-mpf3>:
Classpath
   resource disclosure in GWC Web Resource API on Windows / Tomcat


I am not going to go over the details in email, one of the goals of using
CVE system to avoid duplicated or outdated information. So you always have
a single point of truth where you can check on the status.

As we are relatively new to using the CVE system to broadcast
vulnerabilities I am curious how it is working for you? It is quite
complicated to indicate the version range / version patch information to
correctly show up for automated scans.  If your infrastructure does use
automated scans please let me know if scan was able to detect a vulnerable
version.

A lot of folks put work into GeoServer each month, and this kind of
troubleshooting takes some effort to resolve and communicate. If you are a
public institution or service provider using GeoServer instance please
consider volunteering on the geoserver-security list.

We would also really appreciate more participation around testing the
release candidates each march / September.
These activities are where we as a community share effort, and manage risk,
as a team - so it is not so expensive to put out updates each month.

Thanks to Steve Ikeoka, David Blasby and Andrea for working on
fixes/mitigations. I can also acknolwege Peter and myself for getting
release out promptly. This has been a good team effort.

And thank you for patching yourself over the last week (and if you have not
done so already you best hustle...).
