Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the 'tomcat8' package(s) announced via the ALAS-2016-658 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'tomcat8' package(s) announced via the ALAS-2016-658 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
A directory traversal vulnerability in RequestUtil.java was discovered which allows remote authenticated users to bypass intended SecurityManager restrictions and list a parent directory via a /.. (slash dot dot) in a pathname used by a web application in a getResource, getResourceAsStream, or getResourcePaths call. (CVE-2015-5174)

The Mapper component processes redirects before considering security constraints and Filters, which allows remote attackers to determine the existence of a directory via a URL that lacks a trailing / (slash) character. (CVE-2015-5345)

It was found that the expression language resolver evaluated expressions within a privileged code section. A malicious web application could use this flaw to bypass security manager protections. (CVE-2014-7810)

Affected Software/OS:
'tomcat8' package(s) on Amazon Linux.

Solution:
Please install the updated package(s).

CVSS Score:
5.0
