Debian DSA-3530-1 : tomcat6 - security update

high Nessus Plugin ID 90205

Language:

New! Plugin Severity Now Using CVSS v3

The calculated severity for Plugins has been updated to use CVSS v3 by default. Plugins that do not have a CVSS v3 score will fall back to CVSS v2 for calculating severity. Severity display preferences can be toggled in the settings dropdown.

Synopsis

The remote Debian host is missing a security-related update.

Description

Multiple security vulnerabilities have been fixed in the Tomcat servlet and JSP engine, which may result on bypass of security manager restrictions, information disclosure, denial of service or session fixation.

Solution

Upgrade the tomcat6 packages.

For the oldstable distribution (wheezy), these problems have been fixed in version 6.0.45+dfsg-1~deb7u1.
