"The version of Tomcat installed on the remote host is prior to 9.0.105. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as
referenced in the fixed_in_apache_tomcat_9.0.105_security-9 advisory.
- Improper Handling of Case Sensitivity vulnerability in Apache Tomcat's GCI servlet allows security
constraint bypass of security constraints that apply to the pathInfo component of a URI mapped to the CGI
servlet. This issue affects Apache Tomcat: from 11.0.0-M1 through 11.0.6, from 10.1.0-M1 through 10.1.40,
from 9.0.0.M1 through 9.0.104. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 11.0.7, 10.1.41 or 9.0.105,
which fixes the issue. (CVE-2025-46701)
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
