"The developers of tomcat discovered several problems in tomcat version
3.x. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the
following problems :

  - CAN-2003-0042: A maliciously crafted request could
    return a directory listing even when an index.html,
    index.jsp, or other welcome file is present. File
    contents can be returned as well.
  - CAN-2003-0043: A malicious web application could read
    the contents of some files outside the web application
    via its web.xml file in spite of the presence of a
    security manager. The content of files that can be read
    as part of an XML document would be accessible.

  - CAN-2003-0044: A cross-site scripting vulnerability was
    discovered in the included sample web application that
    allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary script
    code."
