Description

Needs backport because of the CVE reports: https://tomcat.apache.org/security-9.html#Fixed_in_Apache_Tomcat_9.0.43

 

The Apache Tomcat team announces the immediate availability of Apache
Tomcat 9.0.43.

Apache Tomcat 9 is an open source software implementation of the Java
Servlet, JavaServer Pages, Java Unified Expression Language, Java
WebSocket and JASPIC technologies.

Apache Tomcat 9.0.43 is a bugfix and feature release. The notable
changes compared to 9.0.41 include:

• Add support for using Unix domain sockets for NIO when running on Java
  16 or later.

• Add a new StringInterpreter interface that allows applications to
  provide customised string attribute value to type conversion within
  JSPs. This allows applications to provide a conversion implementation
  that is optimised for the application.

• Add peerAddress to coyote request, which contains the IP address of
  the direct connection peer. If a reverse proxy sits in front of Tomcat
  and the RemoteIp(Valve|Filter) is used, the peerAddress is likely to
  differ from the remoteAddress. The remoteAddress is likely to contain
  the address of the client in front of the reverse proxy, not the
  address of the proxy itself.

Please refer to the change log for the complete list of changes:
