CVE-2010-2227

Publication date 13 July 2010

Last updated 24 July 2024

Ubuntu priority

Medium

Why this priority?

Apache Tomcat 5.5.0 through 5.5.29, 6.0.0 through 6.0.27, and 7.0.0 beta does not properly handle an invalid Transfer-Encoding header, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application outage) or obtain sensitive information via a crafted header that interferes with "recycling of a buffer."
