Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.10925
Category:Web Servers
Title:Oracle Jserv Executes outside of doc_root
Summary:Detects Vulnerability in the execution of JSPs outside; doc_root.
Description:Summary:
Detects Vulnerability in the execution of JSPs outside
doc_root.

Vulnerability Insight:
A potential security vulnerability has been discovered in
Oracle JSP releases 1.0.x through 1.1.1 (in Apache/Jserv). This vulnerability permits access
to and execution of unintended JSP files outside the doc_root in Apache/Jserv. For example,
accessing:

http://www.example.com/a.jsp//..//..//..//..//..//../b.jsp

will execute b.jsp outside the doc_root instead of a.jsp if there is a b.jsp file in the
matching directory.

Further, Jserv Releases 1.0.x - 1.0.2 have additional vulnerability:

Due to a bug in Apache/Jserv path translation, any URL that looks like:

http://example.com:port/servlets/a.jsp,

makes Oracle JSP execute 'd:\servlets\a.jsp' if such a directory path actually exists. Thus,
a URL virtual path, an actual directory path and the Oracle JSP name (when using Oracle Apache/JServ)
must match for this potential vulnerability to occur.

Affected Software/OS:
Oracle8i Release 8.1.7, iAS Release version 1.0.2

Oracle JSP, Apache/JServ Releases version 1.0.x - 1.1.1

Solution:
Upgrade to OJSP Release 1.1.2.0.0, available on Oracle
Technology Network's OJSP web site.

CVSS Score:
7.5
