Summary

Red Hat Security Advisory: Red Hat JBoss Fuse/A-MQ 6.3 R7 security and bug fix update

Severity

Moderate

Scope

5 vulnerabilities in this advisory, including CVE-2016-8750.

CVE-2016-8750

Apache Karaf uses the LDAPLoginModule to authenticate users to a directory via LDAP. It does not, however, encode usernames properly and hence is vulnerable to LDAP injection attacks. While it appears that it is not possible to exploit this vulnerability to allow an attacker to gain remote access, it does allow an attacker to insert special characters into the search query step. Therefore, it can potentially be exploited as part of a Denial of Service attack.

7.5 (High)

How durations are calculated

Following the VTEM framework (Black Hat USA 2015), time to patch starts when the vendor or a coordinator was informed, total time to patch at discovery, and disclosure to patch at public disclosure; vendor response time runs from the report to its acknowledgement. Time to exploit and time unpatched start at the earliest discovery or report, falling back to public disclosure. Unpatched time ends at the first recorded patch, or the calculation time when no patch is recorded. Exploitation to patch shows the interval between those two events; a published proof of concept is a public exploit, not exploitation.

Each result shows its source dates. A negative interval means the end event came first; when date-only inputs leave the order open, the result says so. Date-only inputs are approximate. The earliest evidence wins: KEV report dates and sightings are labelled as such. Records describing another vulnerability are listed but never calculated from, and a PoC alone does not establish exploitation. Missing patch evidence does not prove that no patch exists. Filters below change the event list only.

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base model, served locally by ML-Gateway. They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
