I believe WebLogic runs each web application in a separate JVM (or at
least provides an option to do so). That allows developers to get away
with all sorts of poor practice because the container can simply kill
the JVM to clean things up.
Tomcat doesn't work like that. In Tomcat all web applications are hosted
in a single JVM. Java provides no safe mechanism for stopping a
currently processing thread. Therefore there is very little / nothing
Tomcat can do.
The developers need to fix their broken code.

That looks like a client dropping the connection. Tomcat will handle
that happily. Whether the app does is a different question.
