Description

Fuse ESB Enterprise, based on Apache ServiceMix, provides an integration platform.

This release of Fuse ESB Enterprise 7.1.0 Patch 3 is an update to Fuse ESB Enterprise 7.1.0 and includes bug fixes. Refer to the readme file included with the patch files for information about the bug fixes.

The following security issues are also fixed with this release:

If web services were deployed using Apache CXF with the WSS4JInInterceptor enabled to apply WS-Security processing, HTTP GET requests to these services were always granted access, without applying authentication checks. The URIMappingInterceptor is a legacy mechanism for allowing REST-like access (via GET requests) to simple SOAP services. A remote attacker could use this flaw to access the REST-like interface of a simple SOAP service using GET requests that bypass the security constraints applied by WSS4JInInterceptor. This flaw was only exploitable if WSS4JInInterceptor was used to apply WS-Security processing. Services that use WS-SecurityPolicy to apply security were not affected. (CVE-2012-5633)

It was found that the Apache CXF UsernameTokenPolicyValidator and UsernameTokenInterceptor allowed a UsernameToken element with no password child element to bypass authentication. A remote attacker could use this flaw to circumvent access controls applied to web services by omitting the password in a UsernameToken. This flaw was exploitable on web services that rely on WS-SecurityPolicy plain text UsernameTokens to authenticate users. It was not exploitable when using hashed passwords or WS-Security without WS-SecurityPolicy. (CVE-2013-0239)

A flaw was found in the way the Spring Security Framework DaoAuthenticationProvider performed user authentication. A remote attacker could possibly use this flaw to determine if a username was valid or not by observing the time differences during attempted authentication. A caller to an Apache Camel route could possibly use this flaw to perform a side-channel timing attacking to find valid usernames (but not their passwords). (CVE-2012-5055)

All users of Fuse ESB Enterprise 7.1.0 as provided from the Red Hat Customer Portal are advised to upgrade to Fuse ESB Enterprise 7.1.0 Patch 3.
