tag_insight = "Several remote vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Tomcat
servlet and JSP engine. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project
identifies the following problems:
CVE-2007-3382
It was discovered that single quotes (') in cookies were treated
as a delimiter, which could lead to an information leak.
CVE-2007-3385
It was discovered that the character sequence \ in cookies was
handled incorrectly, which could lead to an information leak.
CVE-2007-3386
It was discovered that the host manager servlet performed
insufficient input validation, which could lead to cross-site
scripting.
CVE-2007-5342
It was discovered that the JULI logging component did not restrict
its target path, resulting in potential denial of service through
file overwrites.
CVE-2007-5461
It was discovered that the WebDAV servlet is vulnerable to absolute
path traversal.
For the stable distribution (etch), these problems have been fixed in
version 5.5.20-2etch1.
The old stable distribution (sarge) doesn't contain tomcat5.5.
The unstable distribution (sid) will be fixed soon.
We recommend that you upgrade your tomcat5.5 packages.";
