Atlassian Confluence 7.16.x < 7.16.4 Multiple Servlet Filter Vulnerabilities

critical Web App Scanning Plugin ID 113322

Synopsis

Atlassian Confluence 7.16.x < 7.16.4 Multiple Servlet Filter Vulnerabilities

Description

According to its self-reported version number, the Atlassian Confluence application running on the remote host is prior to 7.4.17, 7.5.x prior to 7.13.7, 7.14.x prior to 7.14.3, 7.15.x prior to 7.15.2, 7.16.x prior to 7.16.4, 7.17.x prior to 7.17.4 or 7.18.0. It is, therefore, affected by the following vulnerabilities :

- An arbitrary servlet filter bypass vulnerability which can lead to authentication bypass or Cross-Site Scripting (XSS). A remote, unauthenticated attacker can bypass Servlet Filters used by first and third party apps. The impact depends on which filters are used by each app, and how the filters are used. (CVE-2022-26136)

- An additional servlet filter invocation vulnerability which can lead to Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) bypass. A remote, unauthenticated attacker can cause additional Servlet Filters to be invoked when the application processes requests or responses. (CVE-2022-26137)

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

Solution

Upgrade to Atlassian Confluence version 7.16.4 or later.
