Debian DLA-1853-1 : libspring-java security update

critical Nessus Plugin ID 126653

Synopsis

The remote Debian host is missing a security update.

Description

Vulnerabilities have been identified in libspring-java, a modular Java/J2EE application framework.

CVE-2014-3578

A directory traversal vulnerability that allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files via a crafted URL.

CVE-2014-3625

A directory traversal vulnerability that allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files via unspecified vectors, related to static resource handling.

CVE-2015-3192

Improper processing of inline DTD declarations when DTD is not entirely disabled, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption and out-of-memory errors) via a crafted XML file.

CVE-2015-5211

Reflected File Download (RFD) attack vulnerability, which allows a malicious user to craft a URL with a batch script extension that results in the response being downloaded rather than rendered and also includes some input reflected in the response.

CVE-2016-9878

Improper path sanitization in ResourceServlet, which allows directory traversal attacks.

For Debian 8 'Jessie', these problems have been fixed in version 3.0.6.RELEASE-17+deb8u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your libspring-java packages.

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

Solution

Upgrade the affected packages.
