Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.146099
Category:Web Servers
Title:Eclipse Jetty Information Disclosure Vulnerability (GHSA-gwcr-j4wh-j3cq)
Summary:Eclipse Jetty is prone to an information disclosure vulnerability; in the ConcatServlet and WelcomeFilter servlet.
Description:Summary:
Eclipse Jetty is prone to an information disclosure vulnerability
in the ConcatServlet and WelcomeFilter servlet.

Vulnerability Insight:
Requests to the ConcatServlet and WelcomeFilter are able to
access protected resources within the WEB-INF directory. For example a request to the
ConcatServlet with a URI of /concat?/%2557EB-INF/web.xml can retrieve the web.xml file. This can
reveal sensitive information regarding the implementation of a web application.

This occurs because both ConcatServlet and WelcomeFilter decode the supplied path to verify it is
not within the WEB-INF or META-INF directories. It then uses this decoded path to call
RequestDispatcher which will also do decoding of the path. This double decoding allows paths with
a doubly encoded WEB-INF to bypass this security check.

Affected Software/OS:
Eclipse Jetty prior to version 9.4.41, 10.x through 10.0.2 and
11.x through 11.0.2.

Solution:
Update to version 9.4.41, 10.0.3, 11.0.3 or later.

CVSS Score:
5.0
