Description Gary Benson 2002-09-09 15:33:40 UTC
Tomcat 4.0.3 is vulnerable to CAN-2002-0935, whereby remote attackers can cause
a denial of service by sending a number of specially crafted requests to the
server.   Stronghold is not vulnerable in the default configuration, but it is
vulnerable if the user enables the Tomcat-Standalone service.
