Description Jan Lieskovsky 2011-05-30 09:29:53 UTC
Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures assigned an identifier CVE-2011-1088 to
the following vulnerability:
============================

Apache Tomcat 7.x before 7.0.10 does not follow ServletSecurity annotations,
which allows remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions via HTTP
requests to a web application.

The upstream fix for this issue has been recognized to introduce a regression:
[15] http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/www-announce/201104.mbox/%3C4D9CA2BC.3070608@apache.org%3E

and CVE identifier of CVE-2011-1183 has been assigned to this:
==============================================================
Apache Tomcat 7.0.11, when web.xml has no login configuration, does not follow
security constraints, which allows remote attackers to bypass intended access
restrictions via HTTP requests to a meta-data complete web application. NOTE:
this vulnerability exists because of an incorrect fix for CVE-2011-1088 and
CVE-2011-1419.

Later an error in the fixes for CVE-2011-1088 and CVE-2011-1183 has been reported:
[22] http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/www-announce/201105.mbox/%3C4DD26E30.2060103@apache.org%3E

which resulted in CVE-2011-1582 assignment:
===========================================
Apache Tomcat 7.0.12 and 7.0.13 processes the first request to a servlet
without following security constraints that have been configured through
annotations, which allows remote attackers to bypass intended access
restrictions via HTTP requests. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because
of an incomplete fix for CVE-2011-1088, CVE-2011-1183, and CVE-2011-1419.
