The following vulnerability was published for tomcat8.

CVE-2018-8014[0]:
| The defaults settings for the CORS filter provided in Apache Tomcat
| 9.0.0.M1 to 9.0.8, 8.5.0 to 8.5.31, 8.0.0.RC1 to 8.0.52, 7.0.41 to
| 7.0.88 are insecure and enable 'supportsCredentials' for all origins.
| It is expected that users of the CORS filter will have configured it
| appropriately for their environment rather than using it in the
| default configuration. Therefore, it is expected that most users will
| not be impacted by this issue.
