Impact: Disclosure of authentication information, Disclosure of system information, Disclosure of user information, Execution of arbitrary code via network, Modification of user information

Advisory: Red Hat Advisory

Version(s): prior to 4.2.0.CP03

Description: Two vulnerabilities were reported in JBoss. A remote user can conduct cross-site scripting attacks. A remote user can determine information about deployed web contexts.
The JavaServer Faces (JSF) component does not properly filter HTML code from user-supplied input before displaying the input [CVE-2008-1285].
A remote user can create a specially crafted URL that, when loaded by a target user, will cause arbitrary scripting code to be
executed by the target user's browser. The code will originate from the site running the JBoss software and will run in the security
context of that site. As a result, the code will be able to access the target user's cookies (including authentication cookies),
if any, associated with the site, access data recently submitted by the target user via web form to the site, or take actions on
the site acting as the target user.
A remote user can access the status servlet to obtain information about deployed web contexts
[CVE-2008-3273].

Impact: A remote user can access the target user's cookies (including authentication cookies), if any, associated with the site running the
JBoss software, access data recently submitted by the target user via web form to the site, or take actions on the site acting as
the target user.
A remote user can determine details about deployed web contexts on the target system.

Solution: Red Hat has issued a fix (4.2.0.CP03).

1. Summary:
Updated JBoss Enterprise Application Platform (JBoss EAP) packages that
resolve several security issues are now available for Red Hat Enterprise
Linux 4.
This update has been rated as having moderate security impact by the Red
Hat Security Response Team.
2. Relevant releases/architectures:
JBoss Enterprise Application Platform for RHEL 4 AS - noarch
JBoss Enterprise Application Platform for RHEL 4 ES - noarch
3. Description:
JBoss EAP is a middleware platform for Java 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition
(J2EE) applications. JBoss Seam is a framework for building Java Internet
applications by integrating the use of Asynchronous JavaScript and XML
(AJAX), JavaServer Faces (JSF), Java Persistence (JPA), Enterprise Java
Beans (EJB 3.0) and Business Process Management (BPM) technologies.

Application Server and JBoss Seam. This release serves as a replacement for
JBoss EAP 4.2.0.GA, and fixes the following security issues:
These updated JBoss Enterprise Application Platform (JBoss EAP) packages
resolve the following security issues:
The JavaServer Faces (JSF) component was vulnerable to multiple cross-site
scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities. An attacker could use these flaws to
inject arbitrary web script or HTML. (CVE-2008-1285)
Unauthenticated users were able to access the status servlet, which could
allow remote attackers to acquire details about deployed web contexts.
(CVE-2008-3273)
These updated packages include bug fixes and enhancements in addition to
the security fixes listed here. For the full list, refer to the JBoss EAP
4.2.0.CP03 release notes, linked to in the "References" section of this
advisory.
