org.apache.http.conn.ssl.AbstractVerifier in Apache HttpComponents HttpClient before 4.3.5 and HttpAsyncClient before 4.0.2 does not properly verify that the server hostname matches a domain name in the subject's Common Name (CN) or subjectAltName field of the X.509 certificate, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to spoof SSL servers via a "CN=" string in a field in the distinguished name (DN) of a certificate, as demonstrated by the "foo,CN=www.apache.org" string in the O field.

Updated jakarta-commons-httpclient and httpcomponents-client packages fix security vulnerabilities:

The Jakarta Commons HttpClient component may be susceptible to a 'Man in the Middle Attack' due to a flaw in the default hostname verification during SSL/TLS when a specially crafted server side certificate is used (CVE-2012-6153).

The Apache httpcomponents HttpClient component may be susceptible to a 'Man in the Middle Attack' due to a flaw in the default hostname verification during SSL/TLS when a specially crafted server side certificate is used (CVE-2014-3577).

Updated cxf packages fix security vulnerabilities:

An Apache CXF JAX-RS service can process SAML tokens received in the authorization header of a request via the SamlHeaderInHandler. However it is possible to cause an infinite loop in the parsing of this header by passing certain bad values for the header, leading to a Denial of Service attack on the service (CVE-2014-3584).

Apache CXF is vulnerable to a possible SSL hostname verification bypass, due to a flaw in comparing the server hostname to the domain name in the Subject's DN field. A Man In The Middle attack can exploit this vulnerability by using a specially crafted Subject DN to spoof a valid certificate (CVE-2014-3577).

This update for apache-commons-httpclient fixes the following issues:

• http/conn/ssl/SSLConnectionSocketFactory.java ignores the http.socket.timeout configuration setting during an SSL handshake, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (HTTPS call hang) via unspecified vectors. [bsc#945190, CVE-2015-5262]
• org.apache.http.conn.ssl.AbstractVerifier does not properly verify that the server hostname matches a domain name in the subject's Common Name (CN) or subjectAltName field of the X.509 certificate, which allows MITM attackers to spoof SSL servers via a 'CN=' string in a field in the distinguished name (DN) of a certificate.

It was discovered that Apache Commons HttpClient did not properly verify the Common Name or subjectAltName fields of X.509 certificates. An attacker could exploit this to perform a machine-in-the-middle attack to view sensitive information or alter encrypted communications. This issue only affected Ubuntu 12.04 LTS. (CVE-2012-5783)

Florian Weimer discovered the fix for CVE-2012-5783 was incomplete for Apache Commons HttpClient. An attacker could exploit this to perform a machine-in-the-middle attack to view sensitive information or alter encrypted communications. This issue only affected Ubuntu 12.04 LTS. (CVE-2012-6153)

Subodh Iyengar and Will Shackleton discovered the fix for CVE-2012-5783 was incomplete for Apache Commons HttpClient. An attacker could exploit this to perform a machine-in-the-middle attack to view sensitive information or alter encrypted communications. (CVE-2014-3577)

It was discovered that Apache Commons HttpClient did not properly handle read timeouts during HTTPS handshakes. A remote attacker could trigger this flaw to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2015-5262)
