According to its self-reported version number, the Apache Tomcat instance listening on the remote host is prior to 8.0.0-RC10. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

  • The fix for CVE-2012-3544 was not complete and limits are not properly applied to chunk extensions and whitespaces in certain trailing headers. This error could allow denial of service attacks. (CVE-2013-4322)

  • The application allows XML External Entity (XXE) processing that could disclose sensitive information.
    (CVE-2013-4590)

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