{"id":"CVE-2017-5648","aliases":["GHSA-3vx3-xf6q-r5xp"],"url":"https://o3.security/vulnerability/CVE-2017-5648","summary":"Exposure of Resource to Wrong Sphere in Apache Tomcat","details":"While investigating bug 60718, it was noticed that some calls to application listeners in Apache Tomcat 9.0.0.M1 to 9.0.0.M17, 8.5.0 to 8.5.11, 8.0.0.RC1 to 8.0.41, and 7.0.0 to 7.0.75 did not use the appropriate facade object. When running an untrusted application under a SecurityManager, it was therefore possible for that untrusted application to retain a reference to the request or response object and thereby access and/or modify information associated with another web application.","published":"2017-04-17T16:59:00.367Z","modified":"2026-10-24T10:31:00.138476934Z","cvss":{"score":9.1,"severity":"CRITICAL","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N"},"epss":null,"cisaKev":null,"exploitsKnown":0,"affectedPackages":[{"ecosystem":"Maven","name":"org.apache.tomcat:tomcat-catalina","fixedVersion":"9.0.0.M18"},{"ecosystem":"Maven","name":"org.apache.tomcat:tomcat-catalina","fixedVersion":"8.5.13"},{"ecosystem":"Maven","name":"org.apache.tomcat:tomcat-catalina","fixedVersion":"8.0.42"},{"ecosystem":"Maven","name":"org.apache.tomcat:tomcat-catalina","fixedVersion":"7.0.76"},{"ecosystem":"Maven","name":"org.apache.tomcat.embed:tomcat-embed-core","fixedVersion":"9.0.0.M18"},{"ecosystem":"Maven","name":"org.apache.tomcat.embed:tomcat-embed-core","fixedVersion":"8.5.13"},{"ecosystem":"Maven","name":"org.apache.tomcat.embed:tomcat-embed-core","fixedVersion":"8.0.42"},{"ecosystem":"Maven","name":"org.apache.tomcat.embed:tomcat-embed-core","fixedVersion":"7.0.76"}],"fix":{"url":"https://github.com/apache/tomcat/commit/0f7b9465d594b9814e1853d1e3a6e3aa51a21610","label":"apache/tomcat@0f7b946"},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"http://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2020/07/20/8"},{"type":"WEB","url":"http://www.securitytracker.com/id/1038220"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/343558d982879bf88ec20dbf707f8c11255f8e219e81d45c4f8d0551%40%3Cdev.tomcat.apache.org%3E"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/388a323769f1dff84c9ec905455aa73fbcb20338e3c7eb131457f708%40%3Cdev.tomcat.apache.org%3E"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/3d19773b4cf0377db62d1e9328bf9160bf1819f04f988315086931d7%40%3Cdev.tomcat.apache.org%3E"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/6af47120905aa7d8fe12f42e8ff2284fb338ba141d3b77b8c7cb61b3%40%3Cdev.tomcat.apache.org%3E"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/845312a10aabbe2c499fca94003881d2c79fc993d85f34c1f5c77424%40%3Cdev.tomcat.apache.org%3E"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/88855876c33f2f9c532ffb75bfee570ccf0b17ffa77493745af9a17a%40%3Cdev.tomcat.apache.org%3E"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/b5e3f51d28cd5d9b1809f56594f2cf63dcd6a90429e16ea9f83bbedc%40%3Cdev.tomcat.apache.org%3E"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/d0e00f2e147a9e9b13a6829133092f349b2882bf6860397368a52600%40%3Cannounce.tomcat.apache.org%3E"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/r3bbb800a816d0a51eccc5a228c58736960a9fffafa581a225834d97d%40%3Cdev.tomcat.apache.org%3E"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/r48c1444845fe15a823e1374674bfc297d5008a5453788099ea14caf0%40%3Cdev.tomcat.apache.org%3E"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/r9136ff5b13e4f1941360b5a309efee2c114a14855578c3a2cbe5d19c%40%3Cdev.tomcat.apache.org%3E"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"http://www.debian.org/security/2017/dsa-3842"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"http://www.debian.org/security/2017/dsa-3843"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/97530"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2017:1801"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2017:1802"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2017:1809"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://security.gentoo.org/glsa/201705-09"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://security.netapp.com/advisory/ntap-20180614-0001/"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2017-5648"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/apache/tomcat/commit/0f7b9465d594b9814e1853d1e3a6e3aa51a21610"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/apache/tomcat/commit/6bb36dfdf6444efda074893dff493b9eb3648808"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/apache/tomcat/commit/dfa40863421d7681fed893b4256666491887e38c"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/apache/tomcat80/commit/6d73b079c55ee25dea1bbd0556bb568a4247dacd"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/88855876c33f2f9c532ffb75bfee570ccf0b17ffa77493745af9a17a@%3Cdev.tomcat.apache.org%3E"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/b5e3f51d28cd5d9b1809f56594f2cf63dcd6a90429e16ea9f83bbedc@%3Cdev.tomcat.apache.org%3E"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/d0e00f2e147a9e9b13a6829133092f349b2882bf6860397368a52600@%3Cannounce.tomcat.apache.org%3E"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/r3bbb800a816d0a51eccc5a228c58736960a9fffafa581a225834d97d@%3Cdev.tomcat.apache.org%3E"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/r48c1444845fe15a823e1374674bfc297d5008a5453788099ea14caf0@%3Cdev.tomcat.apache.org%3E"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/r9136ff5b13e4f1941360b5a309efee2c114a14855578c3a2cbe5d19c@%3Cdev.tomcat.apache.org%3E"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://security.netapp.com/advisory/ntap-20180614-0001"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://
