RHSA-2011:0335-01 -- Redhat tomcat6

Class: PATCHFamily: unix




Apache Tomcat is a servlet container for the Java Servlet and JavaServer Pages technologies. A denial of service flaw was found in the way certain strings were converted to Double objects. A remote attacker could use this flaw to cause Tomcat to hang via a specially-crafted HTTP request. A flaw was found in the Tomcat NIO connector. A remote attacker could use this flaw to cause a denial of service via a specially-crafted request containing a large NIO buffer size request value. This update also fixes the following bug: * A bug in the "tomcat6" init script prevented additional Tomcat instances from starting. As well, running "service tomcat6 start" caused configuration options applied from "/etc/sysconfig/tomcat6" to be overwritten with those from "/etc/tomcat6/tomcat6.conf". With this update, multiple instances of Tomcat run as expected. Users of Tomcat should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain backported patches to correct these issues. Tomcat must be restarted for this update to take effect.
