RHSA-2012:1537: Moderate: jasperreports-server-pro security and bug fix update

First published: Tue Dec 04 2012(Updated: )

JasperReports Server is a reporting server.<br>A flaw was found in the way the Apache Xerces2 Java Parser processed the<br>SYSTEM identifier in DTDs. A remote attacker could provide a<br>specially-crafted XML file, which once parsed by an application using the<br>Apache Xerces2 Java Parser, would lead to a denial of service (application<br>hang due to excessive CPU use). (CVE-2009-2625)<br>This update also fixes the following bugs:<br><li> Adding a user to any ROLE caused an unexpected exception. (BZ#730712)</li> <li> Previously, the jasperreports-server-pro RPM spec file contained the</li> "%{dist}" tag on the "Release" line. To comply with the packaging and<br>naming guidelines, the tag has been changed to "%{?dist}" with this update.<br>(BZ#868927)<br><li> In some cases reports were opened with an incorrect list of</li> Entity/Entities. (BZ#842687)<br>Note: The jasperreports-server-pro package replaces rhevm-reports-server<br>from Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Manager 3.0.<br>Users are advised to upgrade to this updated package, which corrects these<br>issues.<br>
