Apache Derby: LDAP injection vulnerability in authenticator

XML external entity (XXE) vulnerability in the SqlXmlUtil code in Apache Derby before 10.12.1.1, when a Java Security Manager is not in place, allows context-dependent attackers to read arbitrary files or cause a denial of service (resource consumption) via vectors involving XmlVTI and the XML datatype.

In Apache Derby 10.1.2.1, 10.2.2.0, 10.3.1.4, and 10.4.1.3, Export processing may allow an attacker to overwrite an existing file.

In Apache Derby 10.3.1.4 to 10.14.1.0, a specially-crafted network packet can be used to request the Derby Network Server to boot a database whose location and contents are under the user's control. If the Derby Network Server is not running with a Java Security Manager policy file, the attack is successful. If the server is using a policy file, the policy file must permit the database location to be read for the attack to work. The default Derby Network Server policy file distributed with the affected releases includes a permissive policy as the default Network Server policy, which allows the attack to work.

Apache Derby before 10.1.2.1 exposes the (1) user and (2) password attributes in cleartext via (a) the RDBNAM parameter of the ACCSEC command and (b) the output of the DatabaseMetaData.getURL function, which allows context-dependent attackers to obtain sensitive information.

Apache Derby before 10.2.1.6 does not determine privilege requirements for lock table statements at compilation time, and consequently does not enforce privilege requirements at execution time, which allows remote authenticated users to lock arbitrary tables.

Apache Derby before 10.2.1.6 does not determine schema privilege requirements during the DropSchemaNode bind phase, which allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary drop schema statements in SQL authorization mode.

The password hash generation algorithm in the BUILTIN authentication functionality for Apache Derby before 10.6.1.0 performs a transformation that reduces the size of the set of inputs to SHA-1, which produces a small search space that makes it easier for local and possibly remote attackers to crack passwords by generating hash collisions, related to password substitution.
