Synopsis

Apache Tomcat 9.0.0.M1 < 9.0.8 Denial of Service

Description

The version of Apache Tomcat installed on the remote host is 9.0.x prior to 9.0.8. It is, therefore, affected by a denial of service due to a bug in UTF-8 decoder.

Note that the scanner has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to Apache Tomcat version 9.0.8 or later.
