Hi guys,

Just got this from a security mailing list.
This would be helpful to people running tomcat. I've never used it though.
Just saw from PLUG's previous thread.

Tomcat Real Path Disclosure Vulnerability 

A security vulnerability in Tomcat allows remote attackers to determine the
true path used by the remote web server. This would assist an attacker in
better constructing more harmful attacks. 

Vulnerable systems: 
Tomcat version 4.0.1 

Immune systems: 
Tomcat version 3.2.3 

Example: 
Accessing any of the following URLs will reveal the true patch of where the file is 
stored: 
http://tomcat4.1/+/index.jsp 
http://tomcat4.1/>/index.jsp 
http://tomcat4.1/%20/index.jsp 
http://tomcat4.1/</index.jsp
