Upstream bug report: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WW-4200 actual Struts version in fedora is 1.3.10 the problem is present only in Struts 2.0.0 and Struts 2.3.15.1 regards please close this bug Yes, upstream indicates 2.0.0+ but that is only because 1.x is no longer supported (so they never indicate whether it is affected). Did you see the patch that corrects this issue and verify that it doesn't apply to 1.x? Or do you have something more concrete than just upstream's "affected versions" value to substantiate this claim? hi not applicabile for 1.x series (required by springframework) the files that should be patched are not available in 1.x regards structs2 breaks compatibility also with the following package velocity-tools (springframework BR/R) i will not update structs2, until depend on tomcat6 apis, or SpringFramework and Velocity tools do not require more External References: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WW-4200 Upstream Patch: http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=revision&revision=r1524296 Struts 2.3.15.3 GA was announced yesterday, noting this issue as fixed, so possibly the previous fix was not sufficient: http://seclists.org/fulldisclosure/2013/Oct/146 (In reply to Vincent Danen from comment #10) > Struts 2.3.15.3 GA was announced yesterday, noting this issue as fixed, so > possibly the previous fix was not sufficient: > > http://seclists.org/fulldisclosure/2013/Oct/146 the bug hit only the 2.x series, and if read the previous comments, you can give an answer (In reply to gil cattaneo from comment #11) > the bug hit only the 2.x series, and if read the previous comments, you can > give an answer Yes, I'm aware of that. I was just noting followup information, not implying that 1.x was affected. Statement: A previous statement by Red Hat related to this CVE, prior to August 2019, said that Apache Struts 2 is not included in any Red Hat products. This earlier statement was incorrect. While Struts 2 is not actively compiled, shipped, used, or enabled in any Red Hat provided final products, and does not cause any vulnerability in the product, struts2-core jars have been included in some products' source code packages. The inclusion was part of an import of the Google Guice repository, which includes struts2-core. Customers that build artefacts from our source code could be at risk. Red Hat will remove these artefacts from source code in future releases. The products that included the Struts 2 artefacts in their source jars: Fuse Service Works 6.0.0 Single Sign On 7.3.0+ If you have used the source package from one of these products to build artefacts on your system, you should do the following to remove potentially affected jars: 1. Run 'find . -name struts2*.jar' under the source location 2. Remove any files found This will not affect the product, as the jar is included with the source of google-guice, but no functionality requiring struts2 is implemented. |
