Several remote vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Tomcat
servlet and JSP engine. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project
identifies the following problems:
This update also adapts the tomcat5.5-webapps package to the tightened
JULI permissions introduced in the previous tomcat5.5 DSA. However, it
should be noted, that the tomcat5.5-webapps is for demonstration and
documentation purposes only and should not be used for production
systems.
The old stable distribution (sarge) doesn’t contain tomcat5.5.
For the stable distribution (etch), these problems have been fixed in
version 5.5.20-2etch2.
For the unstable distribution (sid), these problems will be fixed soon.
We recommend that you upgrade your tomcat5.5 packages.
