Mandriva Linux Security Advisory 2012-085 - Apache Tomcat 5.5.x before 5.5.35, 6.x before 6.0.34, and 7.x before 7.0.23 uses an inefficient approach for handling parameters, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a request that contains many parameters and parameter values, a different vulnerability than CVE-2011-4858. The updated packages have been patched to correct this issue.

Red Hat Security Advisory 2012-0681-01 - Apache Tomcat is a servlet container. JBoss Enterprise Web Server includes the Tomcat Native library, providing Apache Portable Runtime support for Tomcat. This update fixes the JBPAPP-4873, JBPAPP-6133, and JBPAPP-6852 bugs. It also resolves multiple flaws that weakened the Tomcat HTTP DIGEST authentication implementation, subjecting it to some of the weaknesses of HTTP BASIC authentication, for example, allowing remote attackers to perform session replay attacks.

Red Hat Security Advisory 2012-0475-01 - Apache Tomcat is a servlet container for the Java Servlet and JavaServer Pages technologies. It was found that the Java hashCode() method implementation was susceptible to predictable hash collisions. A remote attacker could use this flaw to cause Tomcat to use an excessive amount of CPU time by sending an HTTP request with a large number of parameters whose names map to the same hash value. This update introduces a limit on the number of parameters processed per request to mitigate this issue. The default limit is 512 for parameters and 128 for headers. These defaults can be changed by setting the org.apache.tomcat.util.http.Parameters.MAX_COUNT and org.apache.tomcat.util.http.MimeHeaders.MAX_COUNT system properties.

Red Hat Security Advisory 2012-0345-02 - JBoss Enterprise Portal Platform is the open source implementation of the Java EE suite of services and Portal services running atop JBoss Enterprise Application Platform. It comprises a set of offerings for enterprise customers who are looking for pre-configured profiles of JBoss Enterprise Middleware components that have been tested and certified together to provide an integrated experience. It was found that JBoss Web did not handle large numbers of parameters and large parameter values efficiently. A remote attacker could make JBoss Web use an excessive amount of CPU time by sending an HTTP request containing a large number of parameters or large parameter values. This update introduces limits on the number of parameters and headers processed per request to address this issue. The default limit is 512 for parameters and 128 for headers. These defaults can be changed by setting the org.apache.tomcat.util.http.Parameters.MAX_COUNT and org.apache.tomcat.util.http.MimeHeaders.MAX_COUNT system properties in "jboss-as/server/[PROFILE]/deploy/properties-service.xml".

Red Hat Security Advisory 2012-0325-01 - JBoss Web is a web container based on Apache Tomcat. A flaw was found in the way JBoss Web handled UTF-8 surrogate pair characters. If JBoss Web was hosting an application with UTF-8 character encoding enabled, or that included user-supplied UTF-8 strings in a response, a remote attacker could use this flaw to cause a denial of service on the JBoss Web server. It was found that the Java hashCode() method implementation was susceptible to predictable hash collisions. A remote attacker could use this flaw to cause JBoss Web to use an excessive amount of CPU time by sending an HTTP request with a large number of parameters whose names map to the same hash value. Various other issues were addressed.

Ubuntu Security Notice 1359-1 - It was discovered that Tomcat incorrectly performed certain caching and recycling operations. A remote attacker could use this flaw to obtain read access to IP address and HTTP header information in certain cases. This issue only applied to Ubuntu 11.10. It was discovered that Tomcat computed hash values for form parameters without restricting the ability to trigger hash collisions predictably. A remote attacker could cause a denial of service by sending many crafted parameters. Various other issues were also addressed.

Apache Tomcat versions 7.0.0 through 7.0.22, 6.0.0 through 6.0.33 and 5.5.0 through 5.5.34 suffer from a denial of service vulnerability. Analysis of the recent hash collision vulnerability identified unrelated inefficiencies with Apache Tomcat's handling of large numbers of parameters and parameter values. These inefficiencies could allow an attacker, via a specially crafted request, to cause large amounts of CPU to be used which in turn could create a denial of service. The issue was addressed by modifying the Tomcat parameter handling code to efficiently process large numbers of parameters and parameter values.
