-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 =========================================================================== AUSCERT External Security Bulletin Redistribution ESB-2014.0864 Important: Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 5.2.0 security update 3 June 2014 =========================================================================== AusCERT Security Bulletin Summary --------------------------------- Product: Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 5.2.0 Publisher: Red Hat Operating System: Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS/ES/WS 4 Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server 5 Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server 6 Windows Solaris Impact/Access: Execute Arbitrary Code/Commands -- Remote/Unauthenticated Resolution: Patch/Upgrade CVE Names: CVE-2014-0107 Original Bulletin: https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2014-0590.html https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2014-0591.html Comment: This bulletin contains two (2) Red Hat security advisories. This advisory references vulnerabilities in products which run on platforms other than Red Hat. It is recommended that administrators running Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 5.2.0 check for an updated version of the software for their operating system. - --------------------------BEGIN INCLUDED TEXT-------------------- - -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 ===================================================================== Red Hat Security Advisory Synopsis: Important: Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 5.2.0 security update Advisory ID: RHSA-2014:0590-01 Product: Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform Advisory URL: https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2014-0590.html Issue date: 2014-06-02 CVE Names: CVE-2014-0107 ===================================================================== 1. Summary: An update for JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 5.2.0, which fixes one security issue and one bug, is now available from the Red Hat Customer Portal. The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having Important security impact. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available from the CVE link in the References section. 2. Description: JBoss Enterprise Application Platform is a platform for Java applications, which integrates the JBoss Application Server with JBoss Hibernate and JBoss Seam. It was found that the secure processing feature of Xalan-Java had insufficient restrictions defined for certain properties and features. A remote attacker able to provide Extensible Stylesheet Language Transformations (XSLT) content to be processed by an application using Xalan-Java could use this flaw to bypass the intended constraints of the secure processing feature. Depending on the components available in the classpath, this could lead to arbitrary remote code execution in the context of the application server running the application that uses Xalan-Java. (CVE-2014-0107) This update also fixes the following bug: It was observed that when using the Transfomer to convert a StreamSource to DOMResult, the performance of the conversion degraded as the size of the character data increased. For example, converting a 50 MB XML BLOB would take a very long time to finish. This issue has been resolved in this release by adjusting both the SAX2DOM and DOMBuilder classes to handle larger inputs more efficiently. (JBPAPP-10991) All users of JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 5.2.0 as provided from the Red Hat Customer Portal are advised to apply this update. The JBoss server process must be restarted for this update to take effect. 3. Solution: The References section of this erratum contains a download link (you must log in to download the update). Before applying the update, back up your existing JBoss Enterprise Application Platform installation (including all applications and configuration files). 4.
