Detail
| A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases: Ubuntu 8.10 Ubuntu 9.04 Ubuntu 9.10 This advisory also applies to the corresponding versions of Kubuntu, Edubuntu, and Xubuntu. The problem can be corrected by upgrading your system to the following package versions: Ubuntu 8.10: Ubuntu 9.04: Ubuntu 9.10: In general, a standard system upgrade is sufficient to effect the necessary changes. Details follow: It was discovered that Tomcat did not correctly validate WAR filenames or paths when deploying. A remote attacker could send a specially crafted WAR file to be deployed and cause arbitrary files and directories to be created, overwritten, or deleted. |

| 62054 | Apache Tomcat WAR Filename Traversal Work-directory File Deletion Apache Tomcat contains a flaw that allows a remote attacker to traverse outside of a restricted path of the host's work directory. The issue is due to Apache Tomcat not properly sanitizing the contents of a WAR file before it is deployed, which could be exploited by a directory traversal sequence in the file name(s) to delete and possibly create malicious files in the host's work directory. |

| 62052 | Apache Tomcat WAR File Traversal Arbitrary File Overwrite Apache Tomcat contains a flaw that allows a remote attacker to traverse outside of a restricted path. The issue is due to the program not properly sanitizing user input, specifically directory traversal style attacks (e.g., ../../) supplied via file names of files contained in a WAR file. This directory traversal attack would allow the attacker to create or overwrite arbitrary files. |
