Project: Seam 2 (was: JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 4 and
5)
Key: JBSEAM-5102 (was: JBPAPP-10764)
Workflow: GIT Pull Request workflow (was: jira)
Affects Version/s: 2.3.0.Final
(was: EAP_EWP 5.1.1)
Release Notes Docs Status: (was: Documented as Resolved Issue)
Writer: (was: ppenicka)
Release Notes Text: (was: Previously, Seam examples stored in
<filename>JBOSS_HOME/seam/examples</filename> used unencrypted client-side
view state. This made the example applications vulnerable to cross-site scripting (XSS)
attacks or execution of arbitrary Expression Language (EL) statements (CVE-2010-2087).
With this update, the examples use server-side view state, which eliminates these
vulnerabilities.)

CLONE - Seam examples use unencrypted client-side view state
------------------------------------------------------------
Key: JBSEAM-5102
URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBSEAM-5102
Project: Seam 2
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Examples
Affects Versions: 2.3.0.Final
Reporter: David Jorm
Assignee: Marek Novotny
Fix For: 2.3.1.CR1
Some seam examples use unencrypted client-side view state. For example, on EAP 5.1.1:
jboss-eap-5.1/seam/examples/seambay/resources/WEB-INF/web.xml
Contains:
<context-param>
<param-name>javax.faces.STATE_SAVING_METHOD</param-name>
<param-value>client</param-value>
</context-param>
But not a corresponding ClientStateSavingPassword value to enable encryption. This
renders the example applications vulnerable to CVE-2010-2087:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=CVE-2010-2087
Please either change the STATE_SAVING_METHOD to server or enable encryption:
<env-entry>
<env-entry-name>ClientStateSavingPassword</env-entry-name>
<env-entry-type>java.lang.String</env-entry-type>
<env-entry-value>INSERT_YOUR_PASSWORD</env-entry-value>
</env-entry>
