A vulnerability was found in Apache Tapestry 5.3.6. It has been declared as critical. This vulnerability affects an unknown function of the component HMAC Verification. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a input validation vulnerability. The CWE definition for the vulnerability is CWE-20. The product receives input or data, but it does
not validate or incorrectly validates that the input has the
properties that are required to process the data safely and
correctly. As an impact it is known to affect confidentiality, integrity, and availability. CVE summarizes:
The code which checks HMAC in form submissions used String.equals() for comparisons, which results in a timing side channel for the comparison of the HMAC signatures. This could lead to remote code execution if an attacker is able to determine the correct signature for their payload. The comparison should be done with a constant time algorithm instead.
The bug was discovered 03/12/2019. The weakness was published 08/23/2019 by David Tomaschik as CVE-2019-10071: Timing Attack in HMAC Verification in Apache Tapestry as not defined mailinglist post (Full-Disclosure). The advisory is available at seclists.org. This vulnerability was named CVE-2019-10071 since 03/26/2019. The attack can be initiated remotely. No form of authentication is required for a successful exploitation. The technical details are unknown and an exploit is not available.
