Changelog

tomcat6 (6.0.45+dfsg-1) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Team upload.
  * Imported Upstream version 6.0.45+dfsg.
    - Remove all prebuilt jar files.
  * Declare compliance with Debian Policy 3.9.7.
  * Vcs-fields: Use https.
  * This update fixes the following security vulnerabilities in the source
    package. Since src:tomcat6 only builds libservlet2.5-java and
    documentation, users are not directly affected.
    - CVE-2015-5174: Directory traversal vulnerability in RequestUtil.java.
    - CVE-2015-5345: The Mapper component in Apache Tomcat before 6.0.45
      processes redirects before considering security constraints and Filters.
    - CVE-2016-0706: Apache Tomcat before 6.0.45 does not place
      org.apache.catalina.manager.StatusManagerServlet on the
      org/apache/catalina/core/RestrictedServlets.properties list which allows
      remote authenticated users to bypass intended SecurityManager
      restrictions.
    - CVE-2016-0714: The session-persistence implementation in Apache Tomcat
      before 6.0.45 mishandles session attributes, which allows remote
      authenticated users to bypass intended SecurityManager restrictions.
    - CVE-2016-0763: The setGlobalContext method in
      org/apache/naming/factory/ResourceLinkFactory.java in Apache Tomcat does
      not consider whether ResourceLinkFactory.setGlobalContext callers are
      authorized, which allows remote authenticated users to bypass intended
      SecurityManager restrictions and read or write to arbitrary application
      data, or cause a denial of service (application disruption), via a web
      application that sets a crafted global context.
    - CVE-2015-5351: The Manager and Host Manager applications in
      Apache Tomcat establish sessions and send CSRF tokens for arbitrary new
      requests, which allows remote attackers to bypass a CSRF protection
      mechanism by using a token.
