REDHAT-BUG-2362782: Low severity Apache Tomcat vulnerability

Published Apr 28, 2025
·
Updated

Improper Neutralization of Escape, Meta, or Control Sequences vulnerability in Apache Tomcat. For a subset of unlikely rewrite rule configurations, it was possible for a specially crafted request to bypass some rewrite rules. If those rewrite rules effectively enforced security constraints, those constraints could be bypassed.

This issue affects Apache Tomcat: from 11.0.0-M1 through 11.0.5, from 10.1.0-M1 through 10.1.39, from 9.0.0.M1 through 9.0.102.

Users are recommended to upgrade to version [FIXEDVERSION], which fixes the issue.
