The version of Tomcat installed on the remote host is prior to 8.5.5. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the fixed_in_apache_tomcat_8.5.5_and_8.0.37_security-8 advisory.

  - The ResourceLinkFactory implementation in Apache Tomcat 9.0.0.M1 to 9.0.0.M9, 8.5.0 to 8.5.4, 8.0.0.RC1 to     8.0.36, 7.0.0 to 7.0.70 and 6.0.0 to 6.0.45 did not limit web application access to global JNDI resources     to those resources explicitly linked to the web application. Therefore, it was possible for a web     application to access any global JNDI resource whether an explicit ResourceLink had been configured or     not. (CVE-2016-6797)

  - A malicious web application running on Apache Tomcat 9.0.0.M1 to 9.0.0.M9, 8.5.0 to 8.5.4, 8.0.0.RC1 to     8.0.36, 7.0.0 to 7.0.70 and 6.0.0 to 6.0.45 was able to bypass a configured SecurityManager via     manipulation of the configuration parameters for the JSP Servlet. (CVE-2016-6796)

  - When a SecurityManager is configured, a web application's ability to read system properties should be     controlled by the SecurityManager. In Apache Tomcat 9.0.0.M1 to 9.0.0.M9, 8.5.0 to 8.5.4, 8.0.0.RC1 to     8.0.36, 7.0.0 to 7.0.70, 6.0.0 to 6.0.45 the system property replacement feature for configuration files     could be used by a malicious web application to bypass the SecurityManager and read system properties that     should not be visible. (CVE-2016-6794)

  - In Apache Tomcat 9.0.0.M1 to 9.0.0.M9, 8.5.0 to 8.5.4, 8.0.0.RC1 to 8.0.36, 7.0.0 to 7.0.70 and 6.0.0 to     6.0.45 a malicious web application was able to bypass a configured SecurityManager via a Tomcat utility     method that was accessible to web applications. (CVE-2016-5018)

  - The Realm implementations in Apache Tomcat versions 9.0.0.M1 to 9.0.0.M9, 8.5.0 to 8.5.4, 8.0.0.RC1 to     8.0.36, 7.0.0 to 7.0.70 and 6.0.0 to 6.0.45 did not process the supplied password if the supplied user     name did not exist. This made a timing attack possible to determine valid user names. Note that the     default configuration includes the LockOutRealm which makes exploitation of this vulnerability harder.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 6 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2017:0455 advisory.

    Red Hat JBoss Web Server is a fully integrated and certified set of components for hosting Java web     applications. It is comprised of the Apache HTTP Server, the Apache Tomcat Servlet container, Apache     Tomcat Connector (mod_jk), JBoss HTTP Connector (mod_cluster), Hibernate, and the Tomcat Native library.

    This release of Red Hat JBoss Web Server 3.1.0 serves as a replacement for Red Hat JBoss Web Server 3.0.3,     and includes enhancements.

    Security Fix(es):

    * It was reported that the Tomcat init script performed unsafe file handling, which could result in local     privilege escalation. (CVE-2016-1240)

    * It was discovered that the Tomcat packages installed certain configuration files read by the Tomcat     initialization script as writeable to the tomcat group. A member of the group or a malicious web     application deployed on Tomcat could use this flaw to escalate their privileges. (CVE-2016-6325)

    * The JmxRemoteLifecycleListener was not updated to take account of Oracle's fix for CVE-2016-3427.
    JMXRemoteLifecycleListener is only included in EWS 2.x and JWS 3.x source distributions. If you deploy a     Tomcat instance built from source, using the EWS 2.x, or JWS 3.x distributions, an attacker could use this     flaw to launch a remote code execution attack on your deployed instance. (CVE-2016-8735)

    * A denial of service vulnerability was identified in Commons FileUpload that occurred when the length of     the multipart boundary was just below the size of the buffer (4096 bytes) used to read the uploaded file     if the boundary was the typical tens of bytes long. (CVE-2016-3092)

    * It was discovered that the code that parsed the HTTP request line permitted invalid characters. This     could be exploited, in conjunction with a proxy that also permitted the invalid characters but with a     different interpretation, to inject data into the HTTP response. By manipulating the HTTP response the     attacker could poison a web-cache, perform an XSS attack, or obtain sensitive information from requests     other then their own. (CVE-2016-6816)

    * A bug was discovered in the error handling of the send file code for the NIO HTTP connector. This led to     the current Processor object being added to the Processor cache multiple times allowing information     leakage between requests including, and not limited to, session ID and the response body. (CVE-2016-8745)

    * The Realm implementations did not process the supplied password if the supplied user name did not exist.
    This made a timing attack possible to determine valid user names. Note that the default configuration     includes the LockOutRealm which makes exploitation of this vulnerability harder. (CVE-2016-0762)

    * It was discovered that a malicious web application could bypass a configured SecurityManager via a     Tomcat utility method that was accessible to web applications. (CVE-2016-5018)

    * It was discovered that when a SecurityManager is configured Tomcat's system property replacement feature     for configuration files could be used by a malicious web application to bypass the SecurityManager and     read system properties that should not be visible. (CVE-2016-6794)

    * It was discovered that a malicious web application could bypass a configured SecurityManager via     manipulation of the configuration parameters for the JSP Servlet. (CVE-2016-6796)

    * It was discovered that it was possible for a web application to access any global JNDI resource whether     an explicit ResourceLink had been configured or not. (CVE-2016-6797)

    The CVE-2016-6325 issue was discovered by Red Hat Product Security.

    Enhancement(s):

    This enhancement update adds the Red Hat JBoss Web Server 3.1.0 packages to Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.
    These packages provide a number of enhancements over the previous version of Red Hat JBoss Web Server.
    (JIRA#JWS-267)

    Users of Red Hat JBoss Web Server are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which add this     enhancement.

The remote Ubuntu 16.04 LTS host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-4557-1 advisory.

    It was discovered that the Tomcat realm implementations incorrectly handled passwords when a username     didn't exist. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to enumerate usernames. (CVE-2016-0762)

    Alvaro Munoz and Alexander Mirosh discovered that Tomcat incorrectly limited use of a certain utility     method. A malicious application could possibly use this to bypass Security Manager restrictions.
    (CVE-2016-5018)

    It was discovered that Tomcat incorrectly controlled reading system properties. A malicious application     could possibly use this to bypass Security Manager restrictions. (CVE-2016-6794)

    It was discovered that Tomcat incorrectly controlled certain configuration parameters. A malicious     application could possibly use this to bypass Security Manager restrictions. (CVE-2016-6796)

    It was discovered that Tomcat incorrectly limited access to global JNDI resources. A malicious application     could use this to access any global JNDI resource without an explicit ResourceLink. (CVE-2016-6797)

    Regis Leroy discovered that Tomcat incorrectly filtered certain invalid characters from the HTTP request     line. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to inject data into HTTP responses. (CVE-2016-6816)

    Pierre Ernst discovered that the Tomcat JmxRemoteLifecycleListener did not implement a recommended fix. A     remote attacker could possibly use this issue to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-8735)

  - A flaw exists in Apache Tomcat within SecurityManager     due to improper restriction of access to system     properties by the configuration files system property     replacement feature. A local attacker can exploit this,     via a crafted web application, to bypass SecurityManager     restrictions and disclose system properties.
    (CVE-2016-6794)

  - A flaw exists in Apache Tomcat that allows a local     attacker to bypass a configured SecurityManager by     changing the configuration parameters for the JSP     Servlet. (CVE-2016-6796)

  - A flaw exists in Apache Tomcat due to a failure to limit     web application access to global JNDI resources. A local     attacker can exploit this to gain unauthorized access to     resources. (CVE-2016-6797)

  - A flaw exists in Apache Tomcat when handling request     lines containing certain invalid characters. An     unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to     conduct HTTP response splitting attacks by injecting     additional headers into responses. (CVE-2016-6816)

  - An infinite loop condition exists in Apache Tomcat in     the HTTP/2 parser when handling overly large headers. An     unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, via a     specially crafted request, to cause a denial of service     condition. (CVE-2016-6817)

  - A carry propagation error exists in the     Broadwell-specific Montgomery multiplication procedure     when handling input lengths divisible by but longer than     256 bits. This can result in transient authentication     and key negotiation failures or reproducible erroneous     outcomes of public-key operations with specially crafted     input. A man-in-the-middle attacker can possibly exploit     this issue to compromise ECDH key negotiations that     utilize Brainpool P-512 curves. (CVE-2016-7055)

  - A flaw exists in cURL in the Curl_cookie_init() function     within file lib/cookie.c when handling cookies. An     unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to     inject new cookies for arbitrary domains.
    (CVE-2016-8615)

  - A flaw exists in cURL in the ConnectionExists() function     within file lib/url.c when checking credentials supplied     for reused connections due to the comparison being     case-insensitive. An unauthenticated, remote attacker     can exploit this to authenticate without knowing the     proper case of the username and password.
    (CVE-2016-8616)

  - An integer overflow condition exists in cURL in the     base64_encode() function within file lib/base64.c due to     improper validation of certain input.

  - A denial of service vulnerability exists in cURL in the     alloc_addbyter() function within file lib/mprintf.c due     to improper validation of overly long input when it is     supplied to the curl_maprintf() API method. An     unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to     free already freed memory and thereby crash the program.
    (CVE-2016-8618)

  - A double-free error exists in cURL in the read_data()     function within file lib/security.c when handling     Kerberos authentication. An unauthenticated, remote     attacker can exploit this to free already freed memory,     resulting in an unspecified impact on confidentiality,     integrity, and availability. (CVE-2016-8619)

  - An out-of-bounds access error exists in cURL in file     tool_urlglob.c within the globbing feature. An     unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to     disclose memory contents or execute arbitrary code.
    (CVE-2016-8620)

  - An out-of-bounds error exists in cURL in the parsedate()     function within file lib/parsedate.c when handling     dates. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit     this to disclose memory contents or cause a denial of     service condition. (CVE-2016-8621)

  - An integer truncation error exists in cURL in the     curl_easy_unescape() function within file lib/escape.c     when handling overly large URLs. An unauthenticated,     remote attacker can exploit this to cause a denial of     service condition or the execution of arbitrary code.
    (CVE-2016-8622)

  - A use-after-free error exists in cURL within file     lib/cookie.c when handling shared cookies. An     unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to     disclose memory contents. (CVE-2016-8623)

  - A flaw exists in cURL in the parseurlandfillconn()     function within file lib/url.c when parsing the     authority component of a URL with the host name part     ending in a '#' character. An unauthenticated, remote     attacker can exploit this to establish a connection to     a different host than intended. (CVE-2016-8624)

  - A flaw exists in cURL within International Domain Names     (IDNA) handling when translating domain names to puny     code for DNS resolving due to using the outdated IDNA     2003 standard instead of the IDNA 2008 standard, which     can result in incorrect translation of a domain name.
    An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to     cause network traffic to be redirected to a different     host than intended. (CVE-2016-8625)

  - A flaw exists in Apache Tomcat within the     catalina/mbeans/JmxRemoteLifecycleListener.java class     that is triggered during the deserialization of Java     objects. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit     this to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-8735)

  - A flaw exists in the Web Server component (Apache HTTP     Server) when handling whitespace patterns in User-Agent     headers. An authenticated, remote attacker can exploit     this, via a specially crafted User-Agent header, to     cause incorrect processing of sequences of requests,     resulting in incorrectly interpreting responses,     polluting the cache, or disclosing content from one     request to a second downstream user-agent.
    (CVE-2016-8743)

  - A NULL pointer dereference flaw exists within file     ssl/statem/statem_clnt.c when handling parameters for     the DHE or ECDHE key exchanges. An unauthenticated,     remote attacker can exploit this, via specially crafted     parameters, to cause a denial of service condition.
    (CVE-2017-3730)

  - A out-of-bounds read error exists exists in the Core     subcomponent, specifically in OpenSSL, when handling     packets using the CHACHA20/POLY1305 or RC4-MD5 ciphers.
    An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this,     via specially crafted truncated packets, to cause a     denial of service condition. (CVE-2017-3731)

  - A carry propagating error exists in the x86_64     Montgomery squaring implementation that may cause the     BN_mod_exp() function to produce incorrect results. An     unauthenticated, remote attacker with sufficient     resources can exploit this to obtain sensitive     information regarding private keys. Note that this issue     is very similar to CVE-2015-3193. Moreover, the attacker     would additionally need online access to an unpatched     system using the target private key in a scenario with     persistent DH parameters and a private key that is     shared between multiple clients. For example, this can     occur by default in OpenSSL DHE based SSL/TLS cipher     suites. (CVE-2017-3732)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

An update for jboss-ec2-eap is now available for Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 6.4 for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.

Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact of Moderate. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each vulnerability from the CVE link(s) in the References section.

The jboss-ec2-eap packages provide scripts for Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform running on the Amazon Web Services (AWS) Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2).

With this update, the jboss-ec2-eap package has been updated to ensure compatibility with Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 6.4.16.

Security Fix(es) :

* It was found that the log file viewer in Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application 6 and 7 allows arbitrary file read to authenticated user via path traversal. (CVE-2017-2595)

* It was discovered that a malicious web application could bypass a configured SecurityManager via a Tomcat utility method that was accessible to web applications. (CVE-2016-5018)

* It was discovered that a malicious web application could bypass a configured SecurityManager via manipulation of the configuration parameters for the JSP Servlet. (CVE-2016-6796)

An update for tomcat is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.

Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact of Low. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each vulnerability from the CVE link (s) in the References section.

Apache Tomcat is a servlet container for the Java Servlet and JavaServer Pages (JSP) technologies.

The following packages have been upgraded to a later upstream version:
tomcat (7.0.76). (BZ#1414895)

Security Fix(es) :

* The Realm implementations did not process the supplied password if the supplied user name did not exist. This made a timing attack possible to determine valid user names. Note that the default configuration includes the LockOutRealm which makes exploitation of this vulnerability harder. (CVE-2016-0762)

* It was discovered that a malicious web application could bypass a configured SecurityManager via a Tomcat utility method that was accessible to web applications. (CVE-2016-5018)

* It was discovered that when a SecurityManager was configured, Tomcat's system property replacement feature for configuration files could be used by a malicious web application to bypass the SecurityManager and read system properties that should not be visible.
(CVE-2016-6794)

* It was discovered that a malicious web application could bypass a configured SecurityManager via manipulation of the configuration parameters for the JSP Servlet. (CVE-2016-6796)

* It was discovered that it was possible for a web application to access any global JNDI resource whether an explicit ResourceLink had been configured or not. (CVE-2016-6797)

Additional Changes :

For detailed information on changes in this release, see the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.4 Release Notes linked from the References section.

According to the versions of the tomcat packages installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - The Realm implementations did not process the supplied     password if the supplied user name did not exist. This     made a timing attack possible to determine valid user     names. Note that the default configuration includes the     LockOutRealm which makes exploitation of this     vulnerability harder. (CVE-2016-0762)

  - It was discovered that a malicious web application     could bypass a configured SecurityManager via a Tomcat     utility method that was accessible to web applications.
    (CVE-2016-5018)

  - It was discovered that when a SecurityManager was     configured, Tomcat's system property replacement     feature for configuration files could be used by a     malicious web application to bypass the SecurityManager     and read system properties that should not be visible.
    (CVE-2016-6794)

  - It was discovered that a malicious web application     could bypass a configured SecurityManager via     manipulation of the configuration parameters for the     JSP Servlet. (CVE-2016-6796)

  - It was discovered that it was possible for a web     application to access any global JNDI resource whether     an explicit ResourceLink had been configured or not.
    (CVE-2016-6797)

  - A vulnerability was discovered in tomcat. When running     an untrusted application under a SecurityManager it was     possible, under some circumstances, for that     application to retain references to the request or     response objects and thereby access and/or modify     information associated with another web     application.(CVE-2017-5648)

  - A vulnerability was discovered in the error page     mechanism in Tomcat's DefaultServlet implementation. A     crafted HTTP request could cause undesired side     effects, possibly including the removal or replacement     of the custom error page.(CVE-2017-5664)

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the EulerOS security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

Multiple security vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Tomcat servlet and JSP engine, which may result in possible timing attacks to determine valid user names, bypass of the SecurityManager, disclosure of system properties, unrestricted access to global resources, arbitrary file overwrites, and potentially escalation of privileges.
