OVERVIEW

        Orchestrator (CVE-2018-11784). [1]


IMPACT

        McAfee has provided the following information about the 
        vulnerability:
        
        "ePO runs on Apache Tomcat and as per the CVE listed below, the Tomcat 
        update consumed by ePO is possibly vulnerable to invalidated redirects 
        to any URI of an attacker's choice.
         
        This ePO update resolves the following issue:
        
        CVE-2018-11784
        When the default servlet returned a redirect to a directory (for 
        example, redirecting to /foo/ when the user requested /foo) a 
        specially crafted URL could be used to cause the redirect to be 
        generated to any URI of the attacker's choice.
        
        Affected Component:
        
            ePO web core services" [1]
