Apache Tomcat 9.0.0-M1 < 9.0.107 Multiple Vulnerabilities

medium Web App Scanning Plugin ID 114916

Synopsis

Apache Tomcat 9.0.0-M1 < 9.0.107 Multiple Vulnerabilities

Description

The version of Apache Tomcat installed on the remote host is 9.0.0-M1 prior to 9.0.107, 10.1.0-M1 prior to 10.1.43 or 11.0.0-M1 prior to 11.0.9. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

- A race condition on connection close could trigger a JVM crash when using the APR/Native connector leading to a DoS. This was particularly noticeable with client initiated closes of HTTP/2 connections. (CVE-2025-52434)

- For some unlikely configurations of multipart upload, an Integer Overflow vulnerability could lead to a DoS via bypassing of size limits. (CVE-2025-52520)

- An uncontrolled resource consumption vulnerability if an HTTP/2 client did not acknowledge the initial settings frame that reduces the maximum permitted concurrent streams could result in a DoS. (CVE-2025-53506)

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 9.0.107 or later.
