The remote host is missing an update for the 'tomcat7, tomcat8' package(s) announced via the USN-3519-1 advisory. It was discovered that Tomcat incorrectly handled certain requests, possibly containing sensitive information, and could bypass Security Manager restrictions. Also, Tomcat incorrectly handled error pages and the CORS filter, leading to cache poisoning
