Tomcat is the servlet container that is used in the official Reference Implementation for the Java Servlet
and JavaServer Pages technologies. The Java Servlet and JavaServer Pages specifications are developed by
Sun under the Java Community Process.
Tomcat is developed in an open and participatory environment and released under the Apache Software

Security issues fixed with this release:
CVE-2011-4858
Apache Tomcat before 5.5.35, 6.x before 6.0.35, and 7.x before 7.0.23 computes hash values for form
parameters without restricting the ability to trigger hash collisions predictably, which allows remote
attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) by sending many crafted parameters.
CVE-2012-0022
Apache Tomcat 5.5.x before 5.5.35, 6.x before 6.0.34, and 7.x before 7.0.23 uses an inefficient approach
for handling parameters, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via
a request that contains many parameters and parameter values, a different vulnerability than
CVE-2011-4858.
Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the MiracleLinux security advisory.
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
