Apache Jackrabbit vulnerabilities

A vulnerability of type "Use of Externally-Controlled Input to Select Classes or Code" in Apache Jackrabbit's WebDAV/Davex client. A malicious WebDAV/DavEx server, or an attacker able to intercept the connection, can cause the client to instantiate arbitrary classes from its classpath, which can lead to arbitrary file creation or truncation. Only applications that use jackrabbit-spi2dav (directly or through jackrabbit-jcr2dav) to connect to a remote repository are affected. Jackrabbit servers are not affected. Category: unsafe reflection on wire data (HIGH).

CVE-2016-6801 involves a content-type check vulnerability in Jackrabbit-Webdav, allowing remote attackers to hijack the authentication of victims for resource creation via an HTTP POST request with a missing or crafted Content-Type header.

Session Fixation / Session Reuse vulnerability in Apache Jackrabbit. The WebDAV server attaches a cached authenticated session on any Lock-Token/TransactionId/SubscriptionId/If-header field token match without credential check. Affects versions from 2.23.0 through 2.23.5, 2.22.0 through 2.22.4, and 2.20.0 through 2.20.17.
