Several security vulnerabilities have been found in Tomcat 10, a Java web server and servlet engine. This update improves the handling of HTTP/2 connections and corrects various flaws which can lead to uncontrolled resource consumption and a denial of service.

For the oldstable distribution (bookworm), these problems have been fixed in version 10.1.52-1~deb12u1.

For the stable distribution (trixie), these problems have been fixed in version 10.1.52-1~deb13u1.
