Description Jan Lieskovsky 2011-05-30 09:50:50 UTC
Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures assigned an identifier CVE-2011-1475 to
the following vulnerability:

The HTTP BIO connector in Apache Tomcat 7.0.x before 7.0.12 does not properly
handle HTTP pipelining, which allows remote attackers to read responses
intended for other clients in opportunistic circumstances by examining
the application data in HTTP packets, related to "a mix-up of responses
for requests from different users."
