Description Sam Fowler 2018-02-23 04:15:41 UTC 
Apache Tomcat versions 7.0.0 to 7.0.84, 8.0.0.RC1 to 8.0.49 and 8.5.0 to 8.5.27 does not properly handle the URL empty string ("") when used as part of a security constraint definition. This can lead to the security constraint being ignored, leading to unitended exposure of resources.
