CVE-2024-13009
Description
A flaw was found in Eclipse Jetty. This vulnerability allows corrupted and inadvertent data sharing between requests via a gzip error when inflating a request body. If the request body is malformed, the gzip decompression process can fail, resulting in the application inadvertently using data from a previous request when processing the current one.
Statement
This vulnerability is rated as an IMPORTANT severity because a buffer management vulnerability exists within the GzipHandler's buffer release mechanism when encountering gzip errors during request body inflation, this flaw can lead to the incorrect release and subsequent inadvertent sharing and corruption of request body data between concurrent uncompressed requests, results in data exposure and incorrect processing of requests due to corrupted input.
Mitigation
Mitigation for this issue is either not available or the currently available options do not meet the Red Hat Product Security criteria comprising ease of use and deployment, applicability to widespread installation base, or stability.
Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) Score Details
Info alert:Important note
CVSS scores for open source components depend on vendor-specific factors (e.g. version or build chain). Therefore, Red Hat's score and impact rating can be different from NVD and other vendors. Red Hat remains the authoritative CVE Naming Authority (CNA) source for its products and services (see Red Hat classifications).
