Descriptions

Apache Tomcat 6.0.0 through 6.0.15 processes parameters in the context of the wrong request when an exception occurs during parameter processing, which might allow remote attackers to obtain sensitive information, as demonstrated by disconnecting during this processing in order to trigger the exception.

Apache Tomcat 6.0.0 hasta 6.0.15 procesa parámetros en el contexto de una solicitud errónea cuando ocurre una excepción durante el procesamiento del parámetro, lo cual permite a atacantes remotos obtener información sensible, tal como se demostró durante este tratamiento para provocar la excepción.

Potential security vulnerabilities have been identified in 3rd party software used in HP XP P9000 Performance Advisor running Oracle and Apache Tomcat Software. HP has updated the Apache Tomcat and Oracle database software to address vulnerabilities affecting confidentiality, availability, and integrity. Revision 1 of this advisory.
