Apache Tomcat CVE-2014-0096 Weak Authentication Vulnerability
Description
The default servlet allows web applications to define (at multiple levels) an XSLT to be used to format a directory listing. When running under a security manager, the processing of these was not subject to the same constraints as the web application. This enabled a malicious web application to bypass the file access constraints imposed by the security manager via the use of external XML entities.
Affected Applications
Apache Tomcat
