Package : tomcat6
Version : 6.0.45+dfsg-1~deb7u2
CVE ID : CVE-2016-1240
Dawid Golunski from legalhackers.com discovered that Debian's version
of Tomcat 6 was vulnerable to a local privilege escalation. Local
attackers who have gained access to the server in the context of the
tomcat6 user through a vulnerability in a web application were able to
replace the file with a symlink to an arbitrary file.

For Debian 7 "Wheezy", these problems have been fixed in version
