If you use a fixed tomcat version, you are not vulnerable to the Accept- HTTP 
Header remote DOS problem.

I think it does not help if you use a REST api, as the underlying problem is in 
FloatingDecimal.java of the JVM.
If you submit the magic string via REST, I think you can hose the system, also.
But thats just an assumption, as I never tested it.
