Certainly code in a .jsp or servlet can read or write anywhere that
Tomcat's userid is allowed to (subject to JVM security policies, of
course).  Anyone stupid enough to put code in a webapp that allows end
users to read or write in arbitrary locations deserves what they get.

That's an error on the part of the Tomcat administrator for deploying
such a horrendous webapp.
