"The version of tomcat installed on the remote host is prior to 8.5.69-1. It is, therefore, affected by multiple
vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2TOMCAT8.5-2024-017 advisory.
2024-02-15: CVE-2021-30640 was added to this advisory.
2024-02-15: CVE-2021-33037 was added to this advisory.
A vulnerability in the JNDI Realm of Apache Tomcat allows an attacker to authenticate using variations of
a valid user name and/or to bypass some of the protection provided by the LockOut Realm. This issue
affects Apache Tomcat 10.0.0-M1 to 10.0.5; 9.0.0.M1 to 9.0.45; 8.5.0 to 8.5.65. (CVE-2021-30640)
Apache Tomcat 10.0.0-M1 to 10.0.6, 9.0.0.M1 to 9.0.46 and 8.5.0 to 8.5.66 did not correctly parse the HTTP
transfer-encoding request header in some circumstances leading to the possibility to request smuggling
when used with a reverse proxy. Specifically: - Tomcat incorrectly ignored the transfer encoding header if
the client declared it would only accept an HTTP/1.0 response; - Tomcat honoured the identify encoding;
and - Tomcat did not ensure that, if present, the chunked encoding was the final encoding.
(CVE-2021-33037)
Generation of Error Message Containing Sensitive Information vulnerability in Apache Tomcat.This issue
affects Apache Tomcat: from 8.5.7 through 8.5.63, from 9.0.0-M11 through 9.0.43.
Users are recommended to upgrade to version 8.5.64 onwards or 9.0.44 onwards, which contain a fix for the
issue. (CVE-2024-21733)
Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the tested product security advisory.
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
