RE: [SECURITY] Apache Tomcat 4.x JSP source disclosure vulnerability

2002-09-24 Thread Marx, Mitchell E (Mitch), ALCNS


Evil question: does this vulnerability exist in Tomcat 3.2.3?

Subject: [SECURITY] Apache Tomcat 4.x JSP source disclosure
vulnerability


A security vulnerability has been confirmed to exist in all Apache 
Tomcat 4.x releases (including Tomcat 4.0.4 and Tomcat 4.1.10), which 
allows to use a specially crafted URL to return the unprocessed source 
of a JSP page, or, under special circumstances, a static resource which 
would otherwise have been protected by security constraint, without the 
need for being properly authenticated.

The cause
-

Using the invoker servlet in conjunction with the default servlet 
(responsible for handling static content in Tomcat) triggers this 
vulnerability. This particular configuration is available in the default

Tomcat configuration.

Workarounds
---

An easy workaround exists for existing Tomcat installations, by 
disabling the invoker servlet in the default webapp configuration.

In the $CATALINA_HOME/conf/web.xml file (on Windows, 
%CATALINA_HOME%\conf\web.xml), comment out or remove the following XML 
fragment:

 servlet-mapping
 servlet-nameinvoker/servlet-name
 url-pattern/servlet/*/url-pattern
 /servlet-mapping

Releases


The Apache Tomcat Team announces the immediate availability of new 
releases which include a fix to the invoker servlet.

Apache Tomcat 4.1.12 Stable:
http://jakarta.apache.org/builds/jakarta-tomcat-4.0/release/v4.1.12/

Apache Tomcat 4.0.5:
http://jakarta.apache.org/builds/jakarta-tomcat-4.0/release/v4.0.5/

OFF TOPIC: RE: [5.0] [VOTE] New branches and repositories

2002-07-11 Thread Marx, Mitchell E (Mitch), ALCNS

As a lay person trying to learn, can I ask a question about the benefits
of repository vs branch?  
Since I haven't really used CVS, I don't know the +/-, but would have
proposed:

 A) Servlet 2.4  JSP 2.0 API
Use new jakarta-servletapi-5.0
 
 B) Catalina 2.0
Use new jakarta-tomcat-catalina-2.0

 C) Coyote 2.0
use new jakarta-tomcat-connectors-2.0
 
 D) Tomcat 5.0
Use new jakarta-tomcat-5.0

 E) Jasper 2.0
use new jakarta-tomcat-jasper-2.0

Which would seem more consistent, for someone just trying to dip in for
the first time.

That's a hard one... 

I would like it to go in jakarta-tomcat, but the current CVS
organization
is a mess and would create more problems. 

I'm actually more on jakarta-tomcat-5 ( without the .0 - since
5.1 will be in this CVS too )
