Apache Tomcat 9.0.0-M1 < 9.0.62 Information Disclosure

Synopsis

Apache Tomcat 9.0.0-M1 < 9.0.62 Information Disclosure

Description

The version of Apache Tomcat installed on the remote host is 8.5.x to 8.5.77, 9.0.0-M1 to 9.0.60, 10.0.0-M1 to 10.0.18 or 10.1.0-M1 to 10.1.0-M12. It is, therefore, affected by a information disclosure vulnerability. The simplified implementation of blocking reads and writes introduced in Tomcat 10 and back-ported to Tomcat 9.0.47 onwards exposed a long standing (but extremely hard to trigger) concurrency bug that could cause client connections to share an Http11Processor instance resulting in responses, or part responses, to be received by the wrong client.

Note that the scanner has not attempted to exploit these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to Apache Tomcat version 9.0.62 or later.
