Several remote vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Tomcat servlet and JSP engine. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems :

  • CVE-2007-3382 It was discovered that single quotes (') in cookies were treated as a delimiter, which could lead to an information leak.

  • CVE-2007-3385 It was discovered that the character sequence ' in cookies was handled incorrectly, which could lead to an information leak.

  • CVE-2007-3386 It was discovered that the host manager servlet performed insufficient input validation, which could lead to a cross-site scripting attack.

  • CVE-2007-5342 It was discovered that the JULI logging component did not restrict its target path, resulting in potential denial of service through file overwrites.

  • CVE-2007-5461 It was discovered that the WebDAV servlet is vulnerable to absolute path traversal.
