Summary
Security update for tomcat6
Details

This update for tomcat6 fixes the following issues:

The version was updated from 6.0.41 to 6.0.45.

Security issues fixed:

  • CVE-2015-5174: Directory traversal vulnerability in RequestUtil.java in Apache Tomcat allowed remote authenticated users to bypass intended SecurityManager restrictions and list a parent directory via a /.. (slash dot dot) in a pathname used by a web application in a getResource, getResourceAsStream, or getResourcePaths call, as demonstrated by the $CATALINA_BASE/webapps directory. (bsc#967967)
  • CVE-2015-5345: The Mapper component in Apache Tomcat processes redirects before considering security constraints and Filters, which allowed remote attackers to determine the existence of a directory via a URL that lacks a trailing / (slash) character. (bsc#967965)
  • CVE-2016-0706: Apache Tomcat did not place org.apache.catalina.manager.StatusManagerServlet on the org/apache/catalina/core/RestrictedServlets.properties list, which allowed remote authenticated users to bypass intended SecurityManager restrictions and read arbitrary HTTP requests, and consequently discover session ID values, via a crafted web application. (bsc#967815)
  • CVE-2016-0714: The session-persistence implementation in Apache Tomcat mishandled session attributes, which allowed remote authenticated users to bypass intended SecurityManager restrictions and execute arbitrary code in a privileged context via a web application that places a crafted object in a session. (bsc#967964)
