Descriptions

org/apache/catalina/realm/RealmBase.java in Apache Tomcat 6.x before 6.0.36 and 7.x before 7.0.30, when FORM authentication is used, allows remote attackers to bypass security-constraint checks by leveraging a previous setUserPrincipal call and then placing /j_security_check at the end of a URI.

org/apache/catalina/campo/RealmBase.java en Apache Tomcat v6.x antes de v6.0.36 y v7.x antes de v7.0.30, cuando se utiliza la autenticación de formularios, permite a atacantes remotos evitar restricciones de seguridad aprovechándose de una llamada setUserPrincipal anterior para luego colocar /j_security_check al final de una URI.
