[ANNOUNCE] Apache Jackrabbit 2.10.1 released

The Apache Jackrabbit community is pleased to announce the release of
Apache Jackrabbit 2.10.1. This release fixes an important security issue in
the jackrabbit-webdav module reported by Mikhail Egorov.

The release is available for download at:

 http://jackrabbit.apache.org/downloads.html

See the full release notes below for details about this release.

Release Notes -- Apache Jackrabbit -- Version 2.10.1

Introduction
------------

This is Apache Jackrabbit(TM) 2.10.1, a fully compliant implementation of the
Content Repository for Java(TM) Technology API, version 2.0 (JCR 2.0) as
specified in the Java Specification Request 283 (JSR 283).

Apache Jackrabbit 2.10.1 is a patch release that contains fixes and
improvements over Jackrabbit 2.10. Jackrabbit 2.10.x releases are considered
stable and targeted for production use.

Security advisory (JCR-3883 / CVE-2015-1833)
--------------------------------------------

This release fixes an important security issue in the jackrabbit-webdav module
reported by Mikhail Egorov.

When processing a WebDAV request body containing XML, the XML parser can be
instructed to read content from network resources accessible to the host,
identified by URI schemes such as "http(s)" or  "file". Depending on the
WebDAV request, this can not only be used to trigger internal network
requests, but might also be used to insert said content into the request,
potentially exposing it to the attacker and others (for instance, by inserting
said content in a WebDAV property value using a PROPPATCH request). See also
IETF RFC 4918, Section 20.6.

Users of the jackrabbit-webdav module are advised to immediately update the
module to this release or disable WebDAV access to the repository. Users
on earlier versions of Jackrabbit who are unable to upgrade to 2.10.1 should
apply the fix to the corresponding 2.x branch or disable WebDAV access until
official releases of those earlier versions are available. Patches for 2.x
branches are attached to the JIRA issue.

Hi,

There is a NPE problem in jack 2.10 .
in line 
at
org.apache.jackrabbit.core.query.lucene.NodeIndexer.isSupportedMediaType(NodeIndexer.java:934)


 supportedMediaTypes = parser.getSupportedTypes(null);

would be
 supportedMediaTypes = parser.getSupportedTypes(new ParseContext());

Hi,

it has been a while since I last did a release on a windows
box. IIRC I used putty/pageant on a regular windows command
line.

I will do the 2.8 release.

...in the meantime I tried to do a release:prepare. It currently fails 
for me (Windows, Cygwin). Does anybody else who is on Windows have 
instructions on how to get this done?

Alternatively, it would be great if other committers with release 
experience could help out for some of these branches.

In the meantime I have

1) created versions for future 2.4/6/8 release in JIRA, and

2) prepared the release notes for 2.0/2/4/6/8 in Subversion

With respect to starting the release: we probably need wait until early 
next week, otherwise we'll have a weekend and a public holiday (at least 
here) within the 72 hours period.

OK,

we have dealt with the emergency, but there's some aftermath left to do.

- We need to do proper releases of 2.8, 2.6, 2.4, 2.2, and 2.0.

- Once done with that, we should announce end-of-life for 2.2 and 2.0.

Do we have any volunteers for doing some of the releases?

Best regards, Julian

The Apache Jackrabbit community is pleased to announce the release of
Apache Jackrabbit 2.10.1. This release fixes an important security issue in
the jackrabbit-webdav module reported by Mikhail Egorov.

The release is available for download at:

  http://jackrabbit.apache.org/downloads.html

See the full release notes below for details about this release.

Release Notes -- Apache Jackrabbit -- Version 2.10.1

Introduction
------------

This is Apache Jackrabbit(TM) 2.10.1, a fully compliant implementation 
of the
Content Repository for Java(TM) Technology API, version 2.0 (JCR 2.0) as
specified in the Java Specification Request 283 (JSR 283).

Apache Jackrabbit 2.10.1 is a patch release that contains fixes and
improvements over Jackrabbit 2.10. Jackrabbit 2.10.x releases are considered
stable and targeted for production use.

Security advisory (JCR-3883 / CVE-2015-1833)
--------------------------------------------

This release fixes an important security issue in the jackrabbit-webdav 
module
reported by Mikhail Egorov.

When processing a WebDAV request body containing XML, the XML parser can be
instructed to read content from network resources accessible to the host,
identified by URI schemes such as "http(s)" or  "file". Depending on the
WebDAV request, this can not only be used to trigger internal network
requests, but might also be used to insert said content into the request,
potentially exposing it to the attacker and others (for instance, by 
inserting
said content in a WebDAV property value using a PROPPATCH request). See also
IETF RFC 4918, Section 20.6.

Users of the jackrabbit-webdav module are advised to immediately update the
module to this release or disable WebDAV access to the repository. Users
on earlier versions of Jackrabbit who are unable to upgrade to 2.10.1 should
apply the fix to the corresponding 2.x branch or disable WebDAV access until
official releases of those earlier versions are available. Patches for 2.x
branches are attached to the JIRA issue.
