Description Vincent Danen 2012-02-07 23:52:02 UTC
Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures assigned an identifier CVE-2012-1006 to
the following vulnerability:

Name: CVE-2012-1006
URL: http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2012-1006
Assigned: 20120206
Reference: http://secpod.org/advisories/SecPod_Apache_Struts_Multiple_Parsistant_XSS_Vulns.txt
Reference: http://secpod.org/blog/?p=450

Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in Apache Struts
2.0.14 and 2.2.3 allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script
or HTML via the (1) name or (2) lastName parameter to
struts2-showcase/person/editPerson.action, or the (3) clientName
parameter to struts2-rest-showcase/orders.

Comment 2 Chess Hazlett 2019-09-17 20:38:51 UTC
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.
