EulerOS 2.0 SP8 : tomcat (EulerOS-SA-2023-1341)

high Nessus Plugin ID 171141

Synopsis

The remote EulerOS host is missing a security update.

Description

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

 - If Apache Tomcat 8.5.0 to 8.5.82, 9.0.0-M1 to 9.0.67, 10.0.0-M1 to 10.0.26 or 10.1.0-M1 to 10.1.0 was configured to ignore invalid HTTP headers via setting rejectIllegalHeader to false (the default for 8.5.x only), Tomcat did not reject a request containing an invalid Content-Length header making a request smuggling attack possible if Tomcat was located behind a reverse proxy that also failed to reject the request with the invalid header. (CVE-2022-42252)

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.

Solution

Update the affected tomcat packages.
