script_tag(name:"insight", value:"The servlet specification prohibits servlet containers from
serving resources in the '/WEB-INF' and '/META-INF' directories of a web application archive
directly to clients.
This means that URLs like:
http://example.com/WEB-INF/web.xml
will return an error message, rather than the contents of the deployment descriptor.
However, some application or web servers / products are prone to a vulnerability that exposes this
information if the client requests a URL like this instead:
http://example.com/WEB-INF./web.xml
http://example.com/web-inf./web.xml
(note the trailing dot ('.') after 'WEB-INF').");

- Update to EAServer 4.1 (also fixed in maintenance release for 3.6.1).

- Cumulative Patch available for JRun 3.0, 3.1 / 4.0.
