Apache Tomcat 11.0.0-M1 < 11.0.11 Multiple Vulnerabilities

high Web App Scanning Plugin ID 115024

Synopsis

Apache Tomcat 11.0.0-M1 < 11.0.11 Multiple Vulnerabilities

Description

The version of Apache Tomcat installed on the remote host is 9.0.0-M1 prior to 9.0.109, 10.1.0-M1 prior to 10.1.45 or 11.0.0-M1 prior to 11.0.11. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

- Console manipulation via escape sequences in log messages. (CVE-2025-55754)

- Directory traversal via Rewrite Valve with possible remote code execution if PUT is enabled. (CVE-2025-55752)

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 11.0.11 or later.
