"Dawid Golunski from legalhackers.com discovered that Debian's version
of Tomcat 7 was vulnerable to a local privilege escalation. Local
attackers who have gained access to the server in the context of the
tomcat7 user through a vulnerability in a web application were able to
replace the file with a symlink to an arbitrary file.

The full advisory can be found at

http://legalhackers.com/advisories/Tomcat-Debian-based-Root-Privilege-
Escalation-Exploit.txt

In addition this security update also fixes Debian bug #821391. File
ownership in /etc/tomcat7 will no longer be unconditionally overridden
on upgrade. As another precaution the file permissions of Debian
specific configuration files in /etc/tomcat7 were changed to 640 to
disallow world readable access.

For Debian 7 'Wheezy', these problems have been fixed in version
7.0.28-4+deb7u6.

We recommend that you upgrade your tomcat7 packages.

NOTE: Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description
block directly from the DLA security advisory. Tenable has attempted
to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without
introducing additional issues."
