- Not Failing Securely ('Failing Open') vulnerability in Apache Tomcat. If the OpenSSLLifecycleListener is
configured to use FIPS mode but FIPS activation fails, Tomcat logs and error but continues to use JSSE in
non-FIPS mode with the provided configuration. This issue affects Apache Tomcat: from 11.0.0-M14 through
11.0.26, from 10.1.22 through 10.1.60, from 9.0.92 through 9.0.122. Users are recommended to upgrade to
version 11.0.27, 10.1.61 or 9.0.123, which fix the issue. (CVE-2026-74048)
