CVE-2020-9484

First published: Wed May 20 2020(Updated: )

A deserialization flaw was discovered in Apache Tomcat's use of a FileStore. An attacker can exploit the flaw if all of the following are true: * An attacker is able to control the contents and name of a file on the server. * The server is configured to use the PersistenceManager with a FileStore. * The PersistenceManager is configured with sessionAttributeValueClassNameFilter="null" (the default unless a SecurityManager is used) or a sufficiently lax filter to allow the attacker-provided object to be deserialized. * The attacker knows the relative file path from the storage location used by FileStore to the file the attacker has control over. If all these conditions are true, the attacker can use a specifically crafted request to trigger Remote Code Execution through deserialization of the file under their control. This flaw affects the following Tomcat versions: 10.0.0-M1 to 10.0.0-M4, 9.0.0.M1 to 9.0.34, 8.5.0 to 8.5.54, and 7.0.0 to 7.0.103.

Remedy

Users may configure the PersistenceManager with an appropriate value for sessionAttributeValueClassNameFilter to ensure that only application provided attributes are serialized and deserialized. For more details about the configuration, refer to the Apache Tomcat 9 Configuration Reference https://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-9.0-doc/config/manager.html.
