Description David Jorm 2012-09-03 01:02:15 EDT
Apache Struts2 includes CSRF protection based on an implementation of the synchronizer token pattern. It was found that this protection could be bypassed by an attacker changing the token name configuration parameter to match a session attribute known to the attacker. Struts 2.0.0 to Struts 2.3.4 is affected by this flaw. It is resolved in Struts 2.3.4.1.

Comment 1 David Jorm 2012-09-03 01:16:31 EDT
Statement:

Not Vulnerable. This issue only affects struts 2, it does not affect the
versions of struts as shipped with various Red Hat products.
