Description of problem:
Tomcat version shipped with Satellite 6.11\12\13 is susceptable to many CVEs as reported by Nessus and Qualys VA scan.
Satellite 6.11\12\13 runs on RHEL 8. The tomcat component is provided by pki-servlet-engine package and the version is 9.0.50.0
- rpm -qf `which tomcat`
pki-servlet-engine-9.0.50-1.module+el8.7.0+15761+f86c9a56.noarch
- tomcat version
Server version: Apache Tomcat/9.0.50
Server built: Jun 24 2022 20:49:41 UTC
Server number: 9.0.50.0
OS Name: Linux
OS Version: 4.18.0-425.3.1.el8.x86_64
Architecture: amd64
JVM Version: 11.0.19+7-LTS
JVM Vendor: Red Hat, Inc.
When Nessus or Qualys VA scan is being done on the mentioned versions of satellite, The following list of CVE's are reported as affected.
CVE-2021-42340
CVE-2022-29885
CVE-2022-34305
CVE-2022-42252 ( https://access.redhat.com/solutions/6996506 )
CVE-2022-45143 ( https://access.redhat.com/solutions/6999616 )
CVE-2023-24998
CVE-2021-43980
CVE-2023-28708
CVE-2022-22965 ( https://access.redhat.com/solutions/6871231 )
For some of them, we may have an explanation but for the majority, we don't. RHEL 8.8 ships tomcat binary via tomcat package directly but even that is of version 9.0.62-5. To mark these VA scans fixed\resolved, The version of Tomcat needs to be >= 9.0.68 .
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Red Hat Satellite 6.11
Red Hat Satellite 6.12
Red Hat Satellite 6.13
pki-servlet-engine ( tomcat ) 9.0.50.0
How reproducible:
Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install any of the above-mentioned versions of the satellite.
2. Run a VA scan using Nessus or Qualys
Actual results:
As explained in the Description.
Expected results:
Either user should not see that many vulnerabilities reported or RedHat should have proper justification for each of these CVEs explaining why RH Satellite as a product is not affected even if it has the vulnerable version of Tomcat installed.
A very good example is :
