Why this priority: Not scored yet, and no exploitation signal.
Published · Updated · NVD status: Received
What it is
A resource is reachable by parties outside the ones it was meant for.
How it is reached
The record does not say yet how the flaw is reached; the description below is the best guide until it is scored.
What an attacker gains
Its impact has not been scored yet. In practice, this kind of flaw lets an attacker learn data or internals that help a follow-up attack.
Is it being exploited?
There is no public report of exploitation yet.
What to do
- Upgrade Apache TomEE to 10.0.0-M1 or later.
Description from NVD
The embedded OpenEJB HTTP server does not isolate HTTP sessions between web applications. A remote attacker can use a session established in one web application in another one, which then trusts session state set by the first application. Only deployments hosting several web applications on the embedded HTTP server are affected. Users are recommended to block network access to the embedded HTTP server from untrusted clients, or to migrate to the Tomcat based TomEE distributions.
What this means for your architecture.
A CVE names a product. Whether it matters depends on where that product sits in your systems: what reaches it, which trust boundary it guards and what it can reach once compromised. Veriom maps your components, their relationships and your trust boundaries from your code, cloud and delivery evidence, so you can see where a component like this sits. The radar itself does not look at your systems.
Components it touches
- Error responses, logs and debug endpoints. The flaw sits between internal data and whoever can read the response or log.
- APIs that over-share. The flaw sits between internal data and whoever can read the response or log.
Trust boundaries in play
- Between internal data and whoever can read the response or log. An attacker who crosses it can learn data or internals that help a follow-up attack.
Questions to answer about your own systems
- Where does Apache TomEE run in your systems, and at which version?
- Which of those instances are reachable by people you do not trust?
- What can it reach once compromised: which data stores, secrets and services?
