Description David Jorm 2011-05-04 06:26:10 UTC
The ehcache component is used by hibernate to provide caching. A potential log file CRLF injection vulnerability has been identified in ehcache. A bug is open against the upstream project:

https://jira.terracotta.org/jira/browse/EHC-854

Comment 3 David Jorm 2011-06-21 02:33:41 UTC
The upstream bug has been closed as WONTFIX, saying that the logging framework should handle sanitization. Our developers have confirmed that no Red Hat products parse or process ehcache logs, significantly lowering the impact of this bug. Given upstream won't fix it, and the impact on Red Hat products is negligible, this tracker is being closed.
