Descriptions

As part of the fix for bug 61201, the documentation for Apache Tomcat 9.0.0.M22 to 9.0.1, 8.5.16 to 8.5.23, 8.0.45 to 8.0.47 and 7.0.79 to 7.0.82 included an updated description of the search algorithm used by the CGI Servlet to identify which script to execute. The update was not correct. As a result, some scripts may have failed to execute as expected and other scripts may have been executed unexpectedly. Note that the behaviour of the CGI servlet has remained unchanged in this regard. It is only the documentation of the behaviour that was wrong and has been corrected.

Como parte de la solución para el bug 61201, la documentación para Apache Tomcat en versiones 9.0.0.M22 a la 9.0.1; versiones 8.5.16 a 8.5.23; 8.0.45 a 8.0.47 y 7.0.79 to 7.0.82 incluía una descripción actualizada del algoritmo de búsqueda empleado por el Servlet CGI para identificar qué script ejecutar. La actualización no fue correcta. Como resultado, algunos scripts no se han ejecutado como se esperaba y otros se han ejecutado inesperadamente. Se debe tener en cuenta que el comportamiento del servlet CGI se ha mantenido sin cambios en este sentido. Lo único erróneo era la documentación del comportamiento, que ya ha sido corregida.
