Security update for tomcat6
SUSE Security Update: Security update for tomcat6
This update fixes a regression in parameter passing (in
urldecoding of parameters that contain spaces).
In addition, multiple weaknesses in HTTP DIGESTS have been
fixed (CVE-2011-1184):
* CVE-2011-5062: The HTTP Digest Access Authentication
implementation in Apache Tomcat 5.5.x before 5.5.34, 6.x
before 6.0.33 and 7.x before 7.0.12 does not check qop
values, which might allow remote attackers to bypass
intended integrity-protection requirements via a qop=auth
value, a different vulnerability than CVE-2011-1184.
* CVE-2011-5063: The HTTP Digest Access Authentication
implementation in Apache Tomcat 5.5.x before 5.5.34, 6.x
before 6.0.33, and 7.x before 7.0.12 does not check realm
values, which might allow remote attackers to bypass
intended access restrictions by leveraging the availability
of a protection space with weaker authentication or
authorization requirements, a different vulnerability than
CVE-2011-1184.
* CVE-2011-5064: DigestAuthenticator.java in the HTTP
Digest Access Authentication implementation in Apache
Tomcat 5.5.x before 5.5.34, 6.x before 6.0.33, and 7.x
before 7.0.12 uses Catalina as the hard-coded server secret
(aka private key), which makes it easier for remote
attackers to bypass cryptographic protection mechanisms by
leveraging knowledge of this string, a different
vulnerability than CVE-2011-1184.
