Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2011-1184 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- org.apache.tomcat:tomcat (Maven): affected from 5.5.0; fixed in 5.5.34\n- org.apache.tomcat:tomcat (Maven): affected from 5.5.0; fixed in 5.5.34\n- org.apache.tomcat:tomcat (Maven): affected from 6.0.0; fixed in 6.0.33\n- org.apache.tomcat:tomcat (Maven): affected from 6.0.0; fixed in 6.0.33\n- org.apache.tomcat:tomcat (Maven): affected from 7.0.0; fixed in 7.0.12\n- org.apache.tomcat:tomcat (Maven): affected from 7.0.0; fixed in 7.0.12\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2011-1184/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2011-1184/index.md)","id":"CVE-2011-1184","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2011-1184/index.md","name":"CVE-2011-1184","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-q9xf-jwr4-v445"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Apache Tomcat","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Remote attackers can bypass access restrictions in Apache Tomcat by replaying sniffed HTTP Digest Authentication requests due to missing nonce checks.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"auth_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"redhat","cpe":[{"product":"tomcat","vendor":"apache"}],"cvss":{"score":5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:N/A:N","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-264","name":null}],"description":"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 does not have the expected countermeasures against replay attacks, which makes it easier for remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions by sniffing the network for valid requests, related to lack of checking of nonce (aka server nonce) and nc (aka nonce-count or client nonce count) values.","ecosystems":["Maven"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Authentication Bypass in Apache Tomcat","id":"CVE-2011-1184","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"Maven","product":"apache:tomcat","products":["apache:tomcat"],"type":"auth_bypass","year":"2011"},"n_packages":6,"n_references":28,"next":{"headline":"Security feature bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-1185"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"Maven","fixed":["5.5.34"],"introduced":["5.5.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"org.apache.tomcat:tomcat","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-q9xf-jwr4-v445"},{"ecosystem":"Maven","fixed":["5.5.34"],"introduced":["5.5.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"org.apache.tomcat:tomcat","purl":"pkg:maven/org.apache.tomcat/tomcat","source":"GHSA-q9xf-jwr4-v445"},{"ecosystem":"Maven","fixed":["6.0.33"],"introduced":["6.0.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"org.apache.tomcat:tomcat","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-q9xf-jwr4-v445"},{"ecosystem":"Maven","fixed":["6.0.33"],"introduced":["6.0.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"org.apache.tomcat:tomcat","purl":"pkg:maven/org.apache.tomcat/tomcat","source":"GHSA-q9xf-jwr4-v445"},{"ecosystem":"Maven","fixed":["7.0.12"],"introduced":["7.0.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"org.apache.tomcat:tomcat","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-q9xf-jwr4-v445"},{"ecosystem":"Maven","fixed":["7.0.12"],"introduced":["7.0.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"org.apache.tomcat:tomcat","purl":"pkg:maven/org.apache.tomcat/tomcat","source":"GHSA-q9xf-jwr4-v445"}],"prev":{"headline":"Access controll bypass in Apache Tomcat","id":"CVE-2011-1183"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2012-01-14","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Apache Tomcat Path Equivalence","id":"CVE-2025-24813","kev_date_added":"2025-04-01","published":"2025-03-10"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Apache Tomcat Remote Code Execution","id":"CVE-2016-8735","kev_date_added":"2023-05-12","published":"2017-04-06"},{"cvss_score":8.1,"headline":"Apache Tomcat Remote Code Execution","id":"CVE-2017-12617","kev_date_added":"2022-03-25","published":"2017-10-03"},{"cvss_score":8.1,"headline":"Apache Tomcat on Windows Remote Code Execution","id":"CVE-2017-12615","kev_date_added":"2022-03-25","published":"2017-09-19"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Apache Tomcat Missing Encryption of Sensitive Data","id":"CVE-2026-34486","kev_date_added":"2026-08-04","published":"2026-04-09"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Apache Tomcat: HTTP/2 no-authority bypass of strict SNI validation -
