Apache Tomcat 9.0.0-M1 < 9.0.120 Multiple Vulnerabilities

critical Web App Scanning Plugin ID 115305

Synopsis

Apache Tomcat 9.0.0-M1 < 9.0.120 Multiple Vulnerabilities

Description

The version of Apache Tomcat installed on the remote host is 9.0.0-M1 prior to 9.0.120, 10.1.0-M1 prior to 10.1.57 or 11.0.0-M1 prior to 11.0.24. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

 - The requirements to securely configure the EncryptInterceptor were not clearly documented. (CVE-2026-59084)

 - Incorrect decoding of '+' in rewritten URIs to a single space could allow security control bypass for some configurations. (CVE-2026-59083)

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 9.0.120 or later.
