Package : tomcat9
CVE ID : CVE-2023-46589 CVE-2024-23672 CVE-2024-24549
Debian Bug : 1057082 1066877 1066878

Several security vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Tomcat
servlet and JSP engine.

CVE-2023-46589

 Tomcat 9 did not correctly parse HTTP trailer headers. A trailer header
 that exceeded the header size limit could cause Tomcat to treat a single
 request as multiple requests leading to the possibility of request
 smuggling when behind a reverse proxy.

CVE-2024-24549

 Denial of Service due to improper input validation vulnerability for
 HTTP/2. When processing an HTTP/2 request, if the request exceeded any of
 the configured limits for headers, the associated HTTP/2 stream was not
 reset until after all of the headers had been processed.

CVE-2024-23672

 Denial of Service via incomplete cleanup vulnerability. It was possible
 for WebSocket clients to keep WebSocket connections open leading to
 increased resource consumption.

For the oldstable distribution (bullseye), these problems have been fixed
in version 9.0.43-2~deb11u10.

We recommend that you upgrade your tomcat9 packages.
