FKIE_CVE-2012-5887
Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2012-11-17 19:55 - Updated: 2025-10-30 15:49
Severity ?
Summary
The HTTP Digest Access Authentication implementation in Apache Tomcat 5.5.x before 5.5.36, 6.x before 6.0.36, and 7.x before 7.0.30 does not properly check for stale nonce values in conjunction with enforcement of proper credentials, which makes it easier for remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions by sniffing the network for valid requests.
