"The version of Tomcat installed on the remote host is prior to 11.0.2. It is, therefore, affected by multiple
vulnerabilities as referenced in the fixed_in_apache_tomcat_11.0.2_security-11 advisory.

  - Time-of-check Time-of-use (TOCTOU) Race Condition vulnerability during JSP compilation in Apache Tomcat
    permits an RCE on case insensitive file systems when the default servlet is enabled for write (non-default
    configuration). This issue affects Apache Tomcat: from 11.0.0-M1 through 11.0.1, from 10.1.0-M1 through
    10.1.33, from 9.0.0.M1 through 9.0.97. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 11.0.2, 10.1.34 or
    9.0.98, which fixes the issue. (CVE-2024-50379)

  - Time-of-check Time-of-use (TOCTOU) Race Condition vulnerability in Apache Tomcat. This issue affects
    Apache Tomcat: from 11.0.0-M1 through 11.0.1, from 10.1.0-M1 through 10.1.33, from 9.0.0.M1 through
    9.0.97. The mitigation for CVE-2024-50379 was incomplete. Users running Tomcat on a case insensitive file
    system with the default servlet write enabled (readonly initialisation parameter set to the non-default
    value of false) may need additional configuration to fully mitigate CVE-2024-50379 depending on which
    version of Java they are using with Tomcat: - running on Java 8 or Java 11: the system property
    sun.io.useCanonCaches must be explicitly set to false (it defaults to true) - running on Java 17: the
    system property sun.io.useCanonCaches, if set, must be set to false (it defaults to false) - running on
    Java 21 onwards: no further configuration is required (the system property and the problematic cache have
    been removed) Tomcat 11.0.3, 10.1.35 and 9.0.99 onwards will include checks that sun.io.useCanonCaches is
    set appropriately before allowing the default servlet to be write enabled on a case insensitive file
    system. Tomcat will also set sun.io.useCanonCaches to false by default where it can. (CVE-2024-56337)

  - Uncontrolled Resource Consumption vulnerability in the examples web application provided with Apache
    Tomcat leads to denial of service. This issue affects Apache Tomcat: from 11.0.0-M1 through 11.0.1, from
    10.1.0-M1 through 10.1.33, from 9.0.0.M1 through 9.9.97. Users are recommended to upgrade to version
    11.0.2, 10.1.34 or 9.0.98, which fixes the issue. (CVE-2024-54677)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
