An access permission override in Apache Struts 2.0.0 to 2.5.20 may cause a Denial of Service when performing a file upload.

Apache Struts 2.0.0 to 2.5.20 forced double OGNL evaluation, when evaluated on raw user input in tag attributes, may lead to remote code execution.

Apache Log4j is vulnerable to a man-in-the-middle attack, caused by improper certificate validation with host mismatch in the SMTP appender. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to launch a man-in-the-middle attack and gain access to the communication channel between endpoints to obtain sensitive information or further compromise the system.

Impact Passing HTML from untrusted sources - even after sanitizing it - to one of jQuery's DOM manipulation methods (i.e. .html(), .append(), and others) may execute untrusted code.

Patches This problem is patched in jQuery 3.5.0.

Workarounds To workaround the issue without upgrading, adding the following to your code:

js jQuery.htmlPrefilter = function( html ) { return html; };

You need to use at least jQuery 1.12/2.2 or newer to be able to apply this workaround.

Apache POI could allow a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information, caused by an XML external entity (XXE) error when processing XML data by tool XSSFExportToXml. By sending a specially-crafted document, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to obtain sensitive information.

A Prototype Pollution vulnerability was found in jquery. Untrusted JSON passed to the extend function could lead to modifying objects up the prototype chain, including the global Object. A crafted JSON object passed to a vulnerable method could lead to denial of service or data injection, with various consequences.

Vulnerability in the Oracle Financial Services Market Risk Measurement and Management component of Oracle Financial Services Applications (subcomponent: User Interface). The supported version that is affected is 8.0.5. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows low privileged attacker with network access via HTTP to compromise Oracle Financial Services Market Risk Measurement and Management. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized creation, deletion or modification access to critical data or all Oracle Financial Services Market Risk Measurement and Management accessible data as well as unauthorized access to critical data or complete access to all Oracle Financial Services Market Risk Measurement and Management accessible data. CVSS 3.0 Base Score 8.1 (Confidentiality and Integrity impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N).

Vulnerability in the Oracle Financial Services Market Risk Measurement and Management component of Oracle Financial Services Applications (subcomponent: User Interface). The supported version that is affected is 8.0.5. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with network access via HTTP to compromise Oracle Financial Services Market Risk Measurement and Management. Successful attacks require human interaction from a person other than the attacker and while the vulnerability is in Oracle Financial Services Market Risk Measurement and Management, attacks may significantly impact additional products. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized update, insert or delete access to some of Oracle Financial Services Market Risk Measurement and Management accessible data as well as unauthorized read access to a subset of Oracle Financial Services Market Risk Measurement and Management accessible data. CVSS 3.0 Base Score 6.1 (Confidentiality and Integrity impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N).

In Apache Synapse, by default no authentication is required for Java Remote Method Invocation (RMI). So Apache Synapse 3.0.1 or all previous releases (3.0.0, 2.1.0, 2.0.0, 1.2, 1.1.2, 1.1.1) allows remote code execution attacks that can be performed by injecting specially crafted serialized objects. And the presence of Apache Commons Collections 3.2.1 (commons-collections-3.2.1.jar) or previous versions in Synapse distribution makes this exploitable. To mitigate the issue, we need to limit RMI access to trusted users only. Further upgrading to 3.0.1 version will eliminate the risk of having said Commons Collection version. In Synapse 3.0.1, Commons Collection has been updated to 3.2.2 version.

In Apache Struts 2.5 to 2.5.14, the REST Plugin is using an outdated JSON-lib library which is vulnerable and allow perform a DoS attack using malicious request with specially crafted JSON payload.

Affected versions of jquery interpret text/javascript responses from cross-origin ajax requests, and automatically execute the contents in jQuery.globalEval, even when the ajax request doesn't contain the dataType option.

Recommendation

Update to version 3.0.0 or later.
