Security Advisory Description
The session-persistence implementation in Apache Tomcat 6.x before 6.0.45, 7.x
before 7.0.68, 8.x before 8.0.31, and 9.x before 9.0.0.M2 mishandles session
attributes, which allows remote authenticated users to bypass intended
SecurityManager restrictions and execute arbitrary code in a privileged context
via a web application that places a crafted object in a session. (CVE-2016-0714)
Impact
A remote authenticated user may bypass the intended security manager
restrictions and execute arbitrary code in a privileged context by exploiting
this vulnerability via a web application that places a crafted object in a
session.
o BIG-IP/Enterprise Manager
BIG-IP and Enterprise Manager systems do not use the affected feature. The
vulnerable software is present; however, the software is not used in a way
that exposes this vulnerability.
o Traffix SDC
Exploitation of this vulnerability may occur if an attacker has access to
the local network of the system; the Tomcat service is accessible only from
the internal network.
Security Advisory Status
F5 Product Development has assigned ID 576884 (BIG-IP), ID 578582 (Enterprise
Manager), ID 466436 (ARX), and INSTALLER-2266 (Traffix SDC) to this
vulnerability, and has evaluated the currently supported releases for potential
vulnerability. Additionally, BIG-IP iHealth may list Heuristic H30971148 on the
Diagnostics > Identified > Low screen.

Security Advisory Recommended Actions
If you are running a version listed in the Versions known to be vulnerable
column, you can eliminate this vulnerability by upgrading to a version listed
in the Versions known to be not vulnerable column. If the table lists only an
older version than what you are currently running, or does not list a
non-vulnerable version, then no upgrade candidate currently exists.
