Descriptions

The HTTP Digest Access Authentication implementation in Apache Tomcat 5.5.x before 5.5.34, 6.x before 6.0.33, and 7.x before 7.0.12 does not have the expected countermeasures against replay attacks, which makes it easier for remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions by sniffing the network for valid requests, related to lack of checking of nonce (aka server nonce) and nc (aka nonce-count or client nonce count) values.

La implementación HTTP Digest Access Authentication en Apache Tomcat v5.5.x anterior a v5.5.34, v6.x anterior a v6.0.33, y v7.x anterior a v7.0.12 carece de contramedidas contra ataques de repetición (replay attacks), lo que hace más fácil para atacantes remotos eludir las restricciones de acceso mediante la captura de solicitudes válidas, en relación con la falta de comprobación de valores nonce (también conocido como servidor nonce) y nc (también conocido como "nonce-count" o "client nonce count").

Potential security vulnerabilities have been identified in 3rd party software used in HP XP P9000 Performance Advisor running Oracle and Apache Tomcat Software. HP has updated the Apache Tomcat and Oracle database software to address vulnerabilities affecting confidentiality, availability, and integrity. Revision 1 of this advisory.
