    This release includes bug fixes, enhancements and component upgrades, which are documented in the Release
    Notes that are linked to in the References section.

    Security Fix(es):

    * jws6-tomcat: Apache Tomcat denial of service [jws-6] (CVE-2025-52520)
    * [Minor Incident] tomcat: http/2 MadeYouReset DoS attack through HTTP/2 control frames [jws-6]
    (CVE-2025-48989)
