CVE-2011-5064

Apache Tomcat 5.5.x-5.5.33, 6.x-6.0.32, 7.x-7.0.11 - Cryptographic Protection Bypass via Hardcoded Secret

Title source: llm
STIX 2.1

Description

DigestAuthenticator.java in the HTTP Digest Access Authentication implementation in Apache Tomcat 5.5.x before 5.5.34, 6.x before 6.0.33, and 7.x before 7.0.12 uses Catalina as the hard-coded server secret (aka private key), which makes it easier for remote attackers to bypass cryptographic protection mechanisms by leveraging knowledge of this string, a different vulnerability than CVE-2011-1184.
