Impact The Snappy frame decoder function doesn't restrict the chunk length which may lead to excessive memory usage. Beside this it also may buffer reserved skippable chunks until the whole chunk was received which may lead to excessive memory usage as well.

This vulnerability can be triggered by supplying malicious input that decompresses to a very big size (via a network stream or a file) or by sending a huge skippable chunk.

Impact

All users of SnappyFrameDecoder are affected and so the application may be in risk for a DoS attach due excessive memory usage.

Impact The Bzip2 decompression decoder function doesn't allow setting size restrictions on the decompressed output data (which affects the allocation size used during decompression).

All users of Bzip2Decoder are affected. The malicious input can trigger an OOME and so a DoS attack

Workarounds No workarounds other than not using the Bzip2Decoder

Infoleak
AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N

Apache Tomcat could allow a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information, caused by an issue when the HTTP request header value can be reused from the previous stream received on an HTTP/2 connection. By sending a specially-crafted HTTP request, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to obtain sensitive information, and use this information to launch further attacks against the affected system.

AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H

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.
