Package: tomcat7
Version: 7.0.56-3+really7.0.99-1
Severity: important

Hi,

tomcat7, as shipped with Debian jessie/oldoldstable (and 8 and 9) are
vulnerable for "ghostcat",  see https://www.chaitin.cn/en/ghostcat .  PoC
exploit code has been published.  Specifically,

 Apache Tomcat 9.x < 9.0.31
 Apache Tomcat 8.x < 8.5.51
 Apache Tomcat 7.x < 7.0.100

are vulnerable.  Upstream has published 9.0.31, 8.5.51, and 7.0.100 to fix this
vulnerability (and other issues).

Tomcat as shipped by Debian is likely not vulnerable from the network in the
default configuration, since by default Tomcat AJP Connector only listens on
localhost:8009, not on *:8009 .
