Multiple security vulnerabilities has been identified and fixed in tomcat5 :

When Tomcat's WebDAV servlet is configured for use with a context and has been enabled for write, some WebDAV requests that specify an entity with a SYSTEM tag can result in the contents of arbitary files being returned to the client (CVE-2007-5461).

Apache Tomcat 5.5.11 through 5.5.25 and 6.0.0 through 6.0.15, when the native APR connector is used, does not properly handle an empty request to the SSL port, which allows remote attackers to trigger handling of a duplicate copy of one of the recent requests, as demonstrated by using netcat to send the empty request (CVE-2007-6286).

Apache Tomcat 4.1.0 through 4.1.39, 5.5.0 through 5.5.27, 6.0.0 through 6.0.18, and possibly earlier versions normalizes the target pathname before filtering the query string when using the RequestDispatcher method, which allows remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions and conduct directory traversal attacks via .. (dot dot) sequences and the WEB-INF directory in a Request (CVE-2008-5515).

Apache Tomcat 4.1.0 through 4.1.39, 5.5.0 through 5.5.27, and 6.0.0 through 6.0.18, when the Java AJP connector and mod_jk load balancing are used, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application outage) via a crafted request with invalid headers, related to temporary blocking of connectors that have encountered errors, as demonstrated by an error involving a malformed HTTP Host header (CVE-2009-0033).

Apache Tomcat 4.1.0 through 4.1.39, 5.5.0 through 5.5.27, and 6.0.0 through 6.0.18, when FORM authentication is used, allows remote attackers to enumerate valid usernames via requests to /j_security_check with malformed URL encoding of passwords, related to improper error checking in the (1) MemoryRealm, (2) DataSourceRealm, and (3) JDBCRealm authentication realms, as demonstrated by a % (percent) value for the j_password parameter (CVE-2009-0580).

The calendar application in the examples web application contains an XSS flaw due to invalid HTML which renders the XSS filtering protection ineffective (CVE-2009-0781).

Apache Tomcat 4.1.0 through 4.1.39, 5.5.0 through 5.5.27, and 6.0.0 through 6.0.18 permits web applications to replace an XML parser used for other web applications, which allows local users to read or modify the (1) web.xml, (2) context.xml, or (3) tld files of arbitrary web applications via a crafted application that is loaded earlier than the target application (CVE-2009-0783).

The updated packages have been patched to prevent this.

Updated tomcat packages that fix security issues and bugs are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.

This update has been rated as having moderate security impact by the Red Hat Security Response Team.

Tomcat is a servlet container for Java Servlet and JavaServer Pages technologies.

A directory traversal vulnerability existed in the Apache Tomcat webdav servlet. In some configurations it allowed remote authenticated users to read files accessible to the local tomcat process.
(CVE-2007-5461)

The default security policy in the JULI logging component did not restrict access permissions to files. This could be misused by untrusted web applications to access and write arbitrary files in the context of the tomcat process. (CVE-2007-5342)

Users of Tomcat should update to these errata packages, which contain backported patches and are not vulnerable to these issues.

Red Hat Network Satellite Server version 5.1.1 is now available. This update includes fixes for a number of security issues in Red Hat Network Satellite Server components.

This update has been rated as having low security impact by the Red Hat Security Response Team.

During an internal security audit, it was discovered that Red Hat Network Satellite Server shipped with an XML-RPC script, manzier.pxt, which had a single hard-coded authentication key. A remote attacker who is able to connect to the Satellite Server XML-RPC service could use this flaw to obtain limited information about Satellite Server users, such as login names, associated email addresses, internal user IDs, and partial information about entitlements. (CVE-2008-2369)

This release also corrects several security vulnerabilities in various components shipped as part of Red Hat Network Satellite Server 5.1. In a typical operating environment, these components are not exposed to users of Satellite Server in a vulnerable manner. These security updates will reduce risk in unique Satellite Server environments.

A denial-of-service flaw was fixed in mod_perl. (CVE-2007-1349)

Multiple cross-site scripting flaws were fixed in the image map feature in the JFreeChart package. (CVE-2007-6306)

A flaw which could result in weak encryption was fixed in the perl-Crypt-CBC package. (CVE-2006-0898)

Multiple flaws were fixed in the Apache Tomcat package.
(CVE-2005-4838, CVE-2006-0254, CVE-2007-1355, CVE-2007-1358, CVE-2007-2449, CVE-2007-5461, CVE-2008-0128)

Users of Red Hat Network Satellite Server 5.1 are advised to upgrade to 5.1.1, which resolves these issues.
