Multiple security vulnerabilities have been discovered in Tomcat 10, a Java based web server, servlet and JSP engine which may result in a denial of service, authentication bypass or the disclosure of sensitive information.

Although we are not aware of any problems, new upstream versions may introduce new options, limits or code changes which may or may not affect your existing web applications. We recommend to consult the Tomcat 10 documentation for further information.

For Debian 12 bookworm, these problems have been fixed in version 10.1.60-1~deb12u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your tomcat10 packages.

For the detailed security status of tomcat10 please refer to its security tracker page at:
https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/tomcat10

Further information about Debian LTS security advisories, how to apply these updates to your system and frequently asked questions can be found at: https://wiki.debian.org/LTS

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Debian security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade the libtomcat10-embed-java packages.
