Overview
org.eclipse.jetty:jetty-webapp is a maven plugin for Jetty web application support.
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Information Exposure. The default compliance mode allows requests with URIs that contain %2e
or %2e%2e
segments to access protected resources within the WEB-INF directory.
For example a request to /context/%2e/WEB-INF/web.xml
can retrieve the web.xml
file. This can reveal sensitive information regarding the implementation of a web application.
