<impact type="high">
<p>A remote attacker may be able to cause a Denial of Service condition,
obtain sensitive information, bypass protection mechanisms and
authentication restrictions.
</p>
<p>A local attacker, who is a tomcats system user or belongs to
tomcats group, could potentially escalate privileges.
</p>

<workaround>
<p>There is no known workaround at this time.</p>
</workaround>
<resolution>
<p>All Apache Tomcat users have to manually check their Tomcat runscripts
to make sure that they dont use an old, vulnerable runscript. In
addition:
</p>
<p>All Apache Tomcat 7 users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
<code>
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=www-servers/tomcat-7.0.70:7"
</code>
<p>All Apache Tomcat 8 users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
<code>
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=www-servers/tomcat-8.0.36:8"
</code>
