"The version of Tomcat installed on the remote host is prior to 10.1.56. It is, therefore, affected by multiple
vulnerabilities as referenced in the fixed_in_apache_tomcat_10.1.56_security-10 advisory.

  - Improper Neutralization of Script-Related HTML Tags in a Web Page (Basic XSS) vulnerability in the number
    guess example for Apache Tomcat. This issue affects Apache Tomcat: from 11.0.0-M1 through 11.0.22, from
    10.1.0-M1 through 10.1.55, from 9.0.0.M1 through 9.0.118, from 8.5.0 through 8.5.100, from 7.0.0 through
    7.0.109. Other versions that have reached end of support may also be affected. Users are recommended to
    upgrade to version 11.0.23, 10.1.56 or 9.0.119, which fix the issue. (CVE-2026-50229)

  - Improper Authorization vulnerability in Apache Tomcat leads to security constraints specified for the
    default servlet ignoring any method or method omission configured as part of the constraint. This issue
    affects Apache Tomcat: from 11.0.0-M1 through 11.0.22, from 10.1.0-M1 through 10.1.55, from 9.0.0.M1
    through 9.0.118, from 8.5.0 through 8.5.100, from 7.0.0 through 7.0.109. Other versions that have reached
    end of support may also be affected. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 11.0.23, 10.1.56 or
    9.0.119, which fix the issue. (CVE-2026-55956)

  - Improper Authentication vulnerability in Apache Tomcat allowed a replay attack against the
    EncryptionInterceptor in the cluster component. This issue affects Apache Tomcat: from 11.0.0-M1 through
    11.0.22, from 10.1.0-M1 through 10.1.55, from 9.0.13 through 9.0.18, from 8.5.38 through 8.5.100, from
    7.0.100 through 7.0.109. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 11.0.23, 10.1.56, 9.0.119, which
    fixes the issue. (CVE-2026-55955)

  - Always-Incorrect Control Flow Implementation vulnerability in Apache Tomcat meant that special roles and
    empty authorisation constraints were not included when the effective web.xml was logged. This issue
    affects Apache Tomcat: from 11.0.0-M1 through 11.0.22, from 10.1.0-M1 through 10.1.55, from 9.0.0.M1
    through 9.0.118, from 8.5.0 through 8.5.100. Other versions that have reached end of support may also be
    affected. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 11.0.23, 10.1.56 or 9.0.119 which fixes the issue.
    (CVE-2026-55276)

  - Detection of Error Condition Without Action vulnerability in Apache Tomcat when configuring CRLs for a FFM
    based connector. This issue affects Apache Tomcat: from 11.0.0-M1 through 11.0.22, from 10.1.0-M7 through
    10.1.55, from 9.0.83 through 9.0.118. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 11.0.23, 10.1.56 or
    9.0.119, which fixes the issue. (CVE-2026-53434)
