"The version of Tomcat installed on the remote host is prior to 11.0.26. It is, therefore, affected by multiple
vulnerabilities as referenced in the fixed_in_apache_tomcat_11.0.26_security-11 advisory.

  - CLIENT_CERT authentication does not fail as expected for some scenarios when soft fail is disabled
    vulnerability in Apache Tomcat. This issue affects Apache Tomcat: from 11.0.0-M14 through 11.0.25, from
    10.1.22 through 10.1.59, from 9.0.92 through 9.0.121. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 11.0.26,
    10.1.60 or 9.0.122, which fix the issue. (CVE-2026-86248)

  - Allocation of resources without limits or throttling vulnerability in Apache Tomcat allows an
    unauthenticated AJP request to pin an AJP processing thread leading to denial of service. This issue
    affects Apache Tomcat: from 11.0.0-M1 through 11.0.25, from 10.1.0-M1 through 10.1.59, from 9.0.0.M1
    through 9.0.121. The following versions were EOL at the time the CVE was created but are known to be
    affected: from 8.5.0 through 8.5.100, from 7.0.0 through 7.0.109. Other unsupported versions may also be
    affected. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 11.0.26, 10.1.60 or 9.0.122, which fix the issue.
    (CVE-2026-78383)

  - Improper Check for Certificate Revocation vulnerability in Apache Tomcat. Both the OpenSSL and OpenSSL-FFM
    TLS implementations ignore CRLs when certificate uses a keystore. This issue affects Apache Tomcat: from
    11.0.0-M1 through 11.0.25, from 10.1.0-M1 through 10.1.58, from 9.0.0-M1 through 9.0.121. The following
    versions were EOL at the time the CVE was created but are known to be affected: from 8.5.0 through
    8.5.100. Other unsupported versions may also be affected. Users are recommended to upgrade to version
    11.0.26, 10.1.59, 9.0.122, which fixes the issue. (CVE-2026-73581)

  - Improper Authentication vulnerability in Apache Tomcat. When Jakarta Authentication was configured with
    SimpleAuthConfigProvider as the default provider and multiple web application used that provider, the
    realm for the first web application to authenticate a request would be used for all web applications. This
    issue affects Apache Tomcat: from 11.0.0-M1 through 11.0.25, from 10.1.0-M1 through 10.1.59, from 9.0.0.M4
    through 9.0.121. The following versions were EOL at the time the CVE was created but are known to be
    affected: from 8.5.0 through 8.5.100. Other unsupported versions may also be affected. Users are
    recommended to upgrade to version 11.0.26, 10.1.60, 9.0.122, which fixes the issue. (CVE-2026-75973)

  - Authentication Bypass by Alternate Name vulnerability in Apache Tomcat allowed the security constraints
    for any WebSocket endpoint to be bypassed. This issue affects Apache Tomcat: from 11.0.0-M1 through
    11.0.25, from 10.1.0-M1 through 10.1.59, from 9.0.0.M1 through 9.0.121. The following versions were EOS at
    the time the CVE was created but are known to be affected: from 8.5.0 through 8.5.100, from 7.0.43 through
    7.0.109. Other unsupported versions may also be affected. Users are recommended to upgrade to version
    11.0.26, 10.1.60 or 9.0.122, which fix the issue. (CVE-2026-76183)
