This update fixes a regression in parameter passing (in
urldecoding of parameters that contain spaces).

In addition, multiple weaknesses in HTTP DIGESTS have been
fixed (CVE-2011-1184):

  • CVE-2011-5062: The HTTP Digest Access Authentication
    implementation in Apache Tomcat 5.5.x before 5.5.34, 6.x
    before 6.0.33 and 7.x before 7.0.12 does not check qop
    values, which might allow remote attackers to bypass
    intended integrity-protection requirements via a qop=auth
    value, a different vulnerability than CVE-2011-1184.
  • CVE-2011-5063: The HTTP Digest Access Authentication
    implementation in Apache Tomcat 5.5.x before 5.5.34, 6.x
    before 6.0.33, and 7.x before 7.0.12 does not check realm
    values, which might allow remote attackers to bypass
    intended access restrictions by leveraging the availability
    of a protection space with weaker authentication or
    authorization requirements, a different vulnerability than
    CVE-2011-1184.
  • CVE-2011-5064: DigestAuthenticator.java in the HTTP
    Digest Access Authentication implementation in Apache
    Tomcat 5.5.x before 5.5.34, 6.x before 6.0.33, and 7.x
    before 7.0.12 uses Catalina as the hard-coded server secret
    (aka private key), which makes it easier for remote
    attackers to bypass cryptographic protection mechanisms by
    leveraging knowledge of this string, a different
    vulnerability than CVE-2011-1184.
