Security

  • Security Fix: Open Redirect Vulnerability occurred (CVE-2020-28150)
  • Security Fix: Jetty CVE-2020-27216
    • In Eclipse Jetty versions 1.0 thru 9.4.32.v20200930, 10.0.0.alpha1 thru 10.0.0.beta2, and 11.0.0.alpha1 thru 11.0.0.beta2O, on Unix like systems, the system's temporary directory is shared between all users on that system. A collocated user can observe the process of creating a temporary sub directory in the shared temporary directory and race to complete the creation of the temporary subdirectory. If the attacker wins the race then they will have read and write permission to the subdirectory used to unpack web applications, including their WEB-INF/lib jar files and JSP files. If any code is ever executed out of this temporary directory, this can lead to a local privilege escalation vulnerability
  • Possible JavaScript injections prevented
  • Security Fix for CVE-2020-13692
    • PostgreSQL JDBC Driver (aka PgJDBC) before 42.2.13 allows XXE
