Status Summary:Vulnerable

Vendor Statement

The Apache Software Foundation acknowledge that Tomcat 3.x can be remotely caused to crash or shutdown by a connection sending the right sequence of bytes to the AP12 protcol port (TCP 8007 by default). Tomcat 3.x users are advised to ensure that this port is adequately firewalled to ensure that it is not accessible to remote attackers. We do not plan on issuing updates to Tomcat 3.x for this issue.
