Description SMASH SMASH 2023-11-29 11:03:25 UTC
Improper Input Validation vulnerability in Apache Tomcat.Tomcat from 11.0.0-M1 through 11.0.0-M10, from 10.1.0-M1 through 10.1.15, from 9.0.0-M1 through 9.0.82 and from 8.5.0 through 8.5.95 did not correctly parse HTTP trailer headers. A trailer header that exceeded the header size limit could cause Tomcat to treat a single request as multiple requests leading to the possibility of request smuggling when behind a reverse proxy.

Users are recommended to upgrade to version 11.0.0-M11 onwards, 10.1.16 onwards, 9.0.83 onwards or 8.5.96 onwards, which fix the issue.

Comment 4 Michele Bussolotto 2024-01-17 19:39:45 UTC
I created MR for:
SUSE:SLE-15-SP1:Update
SUSE:SLE-12-SP4:Update
Factory

As soon the factory request will be accepted, I'll sync the changes to:
SUSE:ALP:Source:Standard:1.0
SUSE:SLE-15-SP2:Update


About SUSE:SLE-12-SP2:Update, the upstream code is 8.0 and it's EOL since 2018. I tried to apply the patch, also doing other changes, but it was not possible to do that. Please let me know if it's really required the fix for this product. 

Thanks
