-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 ===================================================================== Red Hat Security Advisory Synopsis: Important: mod_cluster-native security update Advisory ID: RHSA-2012:0035-01 Product: JBoss Enterprise Web Server Advisory URL: https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2012-0035.html Issue date: 2012-01-18 CVE Names: CVE-2011-4608 ===================================================================== 1. Summary: Updated mod_cluster packages that fix one security issue are now available for JBoss Enterprise Web Server 1.0.2 for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4, 5, and 6. The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having important security impact. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available from the CVE link in the References section. 2. Relevant releases/architectures: JBoss Enterprise Web Server 1.0 for RHEL 4 AS - i386, noarch, x86_64 JBoss Enterprise Web Server 1.0 for RHEL 4 ES - i386, noarch, x86_64 JBoss Enterprise Web Server 1.0 for RHEL 5 Server - i386, noarch, x86_64 JBoss Enterprise Web Server 1.0 for RHEL 6 Server - i386, noarch, x86_64 3. Description: mod_cluster-native provides a native build of mod_cluster for the Apache HTTP Server (httpd). mod_cluster is an httpd-based load balancer. Like mod_jk, it uses a communication channel to forward requests from httpd to an application server node. It was found that mod_cluster allowed worker nodes to register on any virtual host (vhost), regardless of the security constraints applied to other vhosts. In a typical environment, there will be one vhost configured internally for worker nodes, and another configured externally for serving content. A remote attacker could use this flaw to register an attacker-controlled worker node via an external vhost that is not configured to apply security constraints, then use that worker node to serve malicious content, intercept credentials, and hijack user sessions. (CVE-2011-4608) This update also upgrades mod_cluster to version 1.0.10.GA_CP02. Users of mod_cluster should upgrade to these updated packages, which resolve this issue. After installing the updated packages, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 users must restart the httpd22 service, and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 and 6 users must restart the httpd service, for the update to take effect. 4. Solution: Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata relevant to your system have been applied. This update is available via the Red Hat Network. Details on how to use the Red Hat Network to apply this update are available at https://access.redhat.com/kb/docs/DOC-11259 5.
