Apache Tomcat 8.5.x < 8.5.84 JsonErrorReportValve Injection

high Web App Scanning Plugin ID 113508

Synopsis

Apache Tomcat 8.5.x < 8.5.84 JsonErrorReportValve Injection

Description

The version of Apache Tomcat installed on the remote host is 8.5.x to 8.5.83, 9.0.0-M1 to 9.0.68 or 10.1.0-M1 to 10.1.1. It is, therefore, affected by a JsonErrorReportValve injection vulnerability. The JsonErrorReportValve did not escape the type, message or description values. In some circumstances these are constructed from user provided data and it was therefore possible for users to supply values that invalidated or manipulated the JSON output.

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

Solution

Upgrade to Apache Tomcat version 8.5.84 or later.
