CWE-327

Description

Wss4jSecurityInterceptor defaulted allowRSA15KeyTransportAlgorithm to true, overriding Apache WSS4J's safer default for validation RequestData. Inbound WS-Security decryption could therefore accept RSA PKCS#1 v1.5 (rsa-1_5) encrypted key material unless operators explicitly reconfigured the flag. Affected versions: Spring Web Services 5.0.0 through 5.0.1; 4.1.0 through 4.1.3; 4.0.0 through 4.0.18; 3.1.0 through 3.1.8.

Affected configurations

• broadcom spring web services (< 3.1.9) • broadcom spring web services (>= 4.0.0 < 4.0.19) • broadcom spring web services (>= 4.1.0 < 4.1.3.1) • broadcom spring web services (>= 5.0.0 < 5.0.1.1)
