- tomcat9: Servlet and JSP engine
Details:
It was discovered that Tomcat did not properly limit the size of

use this issue to cause Tomcat to consume excessive memory,
resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2026-41284)
It was discovered that Tomcat incorrectly validated HTTP/2 header
fields. A remote attacker could use this issue to cause Tomcat to
crash or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2026-41293)

authentication headers during WebSocket connection upgrades and
redirects. A remote attacker could use this issue to obtain
sensitive credentials. (CVE-2026-42498)
It was discovered that Tomcat incorrectly handled digest
authentication. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to
bypass authentication restrictions. (CVE-2026-43512)

in LockOutRealm. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to
bypass account lockout protections and obtain sensitive information.
(CVE-2026-43513)

when multiple method constraints defined the same HTTP method. A
remote attacker could possibly use this issue to bypass
authorization restrictions. (CVE-2026-43515)
