Detailed Description |
The version of Tomcat installed on the remote host is prior to 8.5.89. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the fixed_in_apache_tomcat_8.5.89_security-8 advisory.
- A regression in the fix for bug 66512 in Apache Tomcat 11.0.0-M5, 10.1.8, 9.0.74 and 8.5.88 meant that, if a response did not include any HTTP headers no AJP SEND_HEADERS messare woudl be sent for the response which in turn meant that at least one AJP proxy (mod_proxy_ajp) would use the response headers from the previous request leading to an information leak. (CVE-2023-34981)
