tomcat-catalina is vulnerable to authorization bypass. URL patterns of empty strings were not handled correctly and caused the server to ignore such security constraints when the urlPattern for a servlet is mapped to " ". This allows an attacker to bypass said security constraints and gain unauthorized access to server resources.
