Description Arun Babu Neelicattu 2014-08-19 02:00:54 EDT
When using Spring Security's CAS Proxy ticket authentication a malicious CAS Service could trick another CAS Service into authenticating a proxy ticket that was not associated. This is due to the fact that the proxy ticket authentication uses the information from the HttpServletRequest which is populated based upon untrusted information within the HTTP request. A remote attacker could use this flaw to bypass any access control restrictions on which CAS services can authenticate to one another.

Statement:

This issue did not affect the versions of spring-security-cas provided by jasperreports-server-pro as shipped with Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Manager 3 as they did not include support for CAS Proxy Service URL configuration via request parameters.
