AXSA:2016-705:03 advisory.

    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 License version 2.0. Tomcat is intended
    to be a collaboration of the best-of-breed developers from around the world.
    Security issues fixed with this release:
    CVE-2015-5174
    Directory traversal vulnerability in RequestUtil.java in Apache Tomcat
    6.x before 6.0.45, 7.x before 7.0.65, and 8.x before 8.0.27 allows
    remote authenticated users to bypass intended SecurityManager
    restrictions and list a parent directory via a /.. (slash dot dot) in
    a pathname used by a web application in a getResource,
    getResourceAsStream, or getResourcePaths call, as demonstrated by the
    $CATALINA_BASE/webapps directory.
    CVE-2015-5345
    The Mapper component in Apache Tomcat 6.x before 6.0.45, 7.x before
    7.0.68, 8.x before 8.0.30, and 9.x before 9.0.0.M2 processes redirects
    before considering security constraints and Filters, which allows
    remote attackers to determine the existence of a directory via a URL
    that lacks a trailing / (slash) character.
    CVE-2016-0706
    Apache Tomcat 6.x before 6.0.45, 7.x before 7.0.68, 8.x before 8.0.31,
    and 9.x before 9.0.0.M2 does not place
    org.apache.catalina.manager.StatusManagerServlet on the
    org/apache/catalina/core/RestrictedServlets.properties list, which
    allows remote authenticated users to bypass intended SecurityManager
    restrictions and read arbitrary HTTP requests, and consequently
    discover session ID values, via a crafted web application.
    CVE-2016-0714
    The session-persistence implementation in Apache Tomcat 6.x before
    6.0.45, 7.x before 7.0.68, 8.x before 8.0.31, and 9.x before 9.0.0.M2
    mishandles session attributes, which allows remote authenticated users
    to bypass intended SecurityManager restrictions and execute arbitrary
    code in a privileged context via a web application that places a
    crafted object in a session.
    CVE-2016-5388
    Apache Tomcat through 8.5.4, when the CGI Servlet is enabled, follows
    RFC 3875 section 4.1.18 and therefore does not protect applications
    from the presence of untrusted client data in the HTTP_PROXY
    environment variable, which might allow remote attackers to redirect
    an application's outbound HTTP traffic to an arbitrary proxy server
    via a crafted Proxy header in an HTTP request, aka an httpoxy issue.
    NOTE: the vendor states A mitigation is planned for future releases
    of Tomcat, tracked as CVE-2016-5388; in other words, this is not a
    CVE ID for a vulnerability.
    CVE-2016-6325
    ** RESERVED **
    This candidate has been reserved by an organization or individual that
    will use it when announcing a new security problem.  When the
    candidate has been publicized, the details for this candidate will be
    provided.
    Fixed bugs:
    * Due to a bug in the tomcat6 spec file, the catalina.out file's md5sum, size, and mtime attributes were
    compared to the file's attributes at installation time. Because these attributes change after the service
    is started, the rpm -V command previously failed. With this update, the attributes mentioned above are
    ignored in the RPM verification and the catalina.out file now passes the verification check.

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.");
