CVE-2018-12536
First published: Wed Jun 27 2018(Updated: )
Eclipse Jetty could allow a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information. An attacker could send a specially-crafted URL request to the java.nio.file.InvalidPathException function using an invalid parameter to cause an error message to be returned containing the full installation path. An attacker could use this information to launch further attacks against the affected system.
