Multiple security issues were found in the Tomcat servlet and JSP engine:

  • CVE-2013-2067
    FORM authentication associates the most recent request requiring
    authentication with the current session. By repeatedly sending a request
    for an authenticated resource while the victim is completing the login
    form, an attacker could inject a request that would be executed using the
    victim’s credentials.
  • CVE-2013-2071
    A runtime exception in AsyncListener.onComplete() prevents the request from
    being recycled. This may expose elements of a previous request to a current
    request.
  • CVE-2013-4286
    Reject requests with multiple content-length headers or with a content-length
    header when chunked encoding is being used.
  • CVE-2013-4322
    When processing a request submitted using the chunked transfer encoding,
    Tomcat ignored but did not limit any extensions that were included. This allows
    a client to perform a limited denial of service by streaming an unlimited amount
    of data to the server.
  • CVE-2014-0050
    Multipart requests with a malformed Content-Type header could trigger an
    infinite loop causing a denial of service.

For the stable distribution (wheezy), these problems have been fixed in
version 7.0.28-4+deb7u1.

For the testing distribution (jessie), these problems have been fixed in
version 7.0.52-1.

For the unstable distribution (sid), these problems have been fixed in
version 7.0.52-1.

We recommend that you upgrade your tomcat7 packages.
