## Description:
This update for tomcat11 fixes the following issues:
Update to Tomcat 11.0.18:
* CVE-2025-66614: client certificate verification bypass due to virtual host
mapping (bsc#1258371).
* CVE-2026-24733: improper input validation on HTTP/0.9 requests
(bsc#1258385).
* CVE-2026-24734: certificate revocation bypass due to incomplete OCSP
verification checks (bsc#1258387).
Changelog:
* Catalina
* Fix: 69932: Fix request end access log pattern regression, which would log
the start time of the request instead. (remm)
* Fix: 69623: Additional fix for the long standing regression that meant that
calls to ClassLoader.getResource().getContent() failed when made from within
a web application with resource caching enabled if the target resource was
packaged in a JAR file. (markt)
* Fix: Pull request #923: Avoid adding multiple CSRF tokens to a URL in the
CsrfPreventionFilter. (schultz)
* Fix: 69918: Ensure request parameters are correctly parsed for HTTP/2
requests when the content-length header is not set. (dsoumis)
* Update: Enable minimum and recommended Tomcat Native versions to be set
separately for Tomcat Native 1.x and 2.x. Update the minimum and recommended
versions for Tomcat Native 1.x to 1.3.4. Update the minimum and recommended
versions for Tomcat Native 2.x to 2.0.12. (markt)
* Add: Add a new ssoReauthenticationMode to the Tomcat provided Authenticators
that provides a per Authenticator override of the SSO Valve
requireReauthentication attribute. (markt)
* Fix: Ensure URL encoding errors in the Rewrite Valve trigger an exception
rather than silently using a replacement character. (markt)
* Fix: 69871: Increase log level to INFO for missing configuration for the
rewrite valve. (remm)
* Fix: Add log warnings for additional Host appBase suspicious values. (remm)
* Fix: Remove hard dependency on tomcat-jni.jar for catalina.jar.
org.apache.catalina.Connector no longer requires
org.apache.tomcat.jni.AprStatus to be present. (markt)
* Add: Add the ability to use a custom function to generate the client
identifier in the CrawlerSessionManagerValve. This is only available
programmatically. Pull request #902 by Brian Matzon. (markt)
* Fix: Change the SSO reauthentication behaviour for SPNEGO authentication so
that a normal SPNEGO authentication is performed if the SSL Valve is
configured with reauthentication enabled. This is so that the delegated
credentials will be available to the web application. (markt)
* Fix: When generating the class path in the Loader, re-order the check on
individual class path components to avoid a potential NullPointerException.
Identified by Coverity Scan. (markt)
* Fix: Fix SSL socket factory configuration in the JNDI realm. Based on pull
request #915 by Joshua Rogers. (remm)
* Update: Add an attribute, digestInRfc3112Order, to
MessageDigestCredentialHandler to control the order in which the credential
and salt are digested. By default, the current, non-RFC 3112 compliant,
order of salt then credential will be used. This default will change in
Tomcat 12 to the RFC 3112 compliant order of credential then salt. (markt)
* Cluster
* Add: 62814: Document that human-readable names may be used for
mapSendOptions and align documentation with channelSendOptions. Based on
pull request #929 by archan0621. (markt)
* Clustering
* Fix: Correct a regression introduced in 11.0.11 that broke some clustering
configurations. (markt)
* Coyote
* Fix: 69936: Fix bug in previous fix for Tomcat Native crashes on shutdown
that triggered a significant memory leak. Patch provided by Wes. (markt)
* Fix: Prevent concurrent release of OpenSSLEngine resources and the
termination of the Tomcat Native library as it can cause crashes during
Tomcat shutdown. (markt)
* Fix: Improve warnings when setting ciphers lists in the FFM code, mirroring
the tomcat-native changes. (remm)
* Fix: 69910: Dereference TLS objects right after closing a socket to improve
memory efficiency. (remm)
* Fix: Relax the JSSE vs OpenSSL configuration style checks on SSLHostConfig
to reflect the existing implementation that allows one configuration style
to be used for the trust attributes and a different style for all the other
attributes. (markt)
* Fix: Better warning message when OpenSSLConf configuration elements are used
with a JSSE TLS implementation. (markt)
* Fix: When using OpenSSL via FFM, don't log a warning about missing CA
certificates unless CA certificates were configured and the configuration
failed. (markt)
* Add: For configuration consistency between OpenSSL and JSSE TLS
implementations, TLSv1.3 cipher suites included in the ciphers attribute of
an SSLHostConfig are now always ignored (previously they would be ignored
with OpenSSL implementations and used with JSSE implementations) and a
warning is logged that the cipher suite has been ignored. (markt)
* Add: Add the ciphersuite attribute to SSLHostConfig to configure the TLSv1.3
cipher suites. (markt)
* Add: Add OCSP support to JSSE based TLS connectors and make the use of OCSP
configurable per connector for both JSSE and OpenSSL based TLS
implementations. Align the checks performed by OpenSSL with those performed
by JSSE. (markt)
* Add: Add support for soft failure of OCSP checks with soft failure support
disabled by default. (markt)
* Add: Add support for configuring the verification flags passed to
OCSP_basic_verify when using an OpenSSL based TLS implementation. (markt)
* Fix: Fix OpenSSL FFM code compatibility with LibreSSL versions below 3.5.
* Fix: Don't log an incorrect certificate KeyStore location when creating a
TLS connector if the KeyStore instance has been set directly on the
connector. (markt)
* Fix: HTTP/0.9 only allows GET as the HTTP method. (remm)
* Add: Add strictSni attribute on the Connector to allow matching the
SSLHostConfig configuration associated with the SNI host name to the
SSLHostConfig configuration matched from the HTTP protocol host name. Non
matching configurations will cause the request to be rejected. The attribute
default value is true, enabling the matching. (remm)
* Fix: Graceful failure for OCSP on BoringSSL in the FFM code. (remm)
* Fix: 69866: Fix a memory leak when using a trust store with the OpenSSL
provider. Pull request #912 by aogburn. (markt)
* Fix: Fix potential crash on shutdown when a Connector depends on the Tomcat
Native library. (markt)
* Fix: Fix AJP message length check. Pull request #916 by Joshua Rogers.
* Jasper
* Fix: 69333: Correct a regression in the previous fix for 69333 and ensure
that reuse() or release() is always called for a tag. (markt)
* Fix: 69877: Catch IllegalArgumentException when processing URIs when
creating the classpath to handle invalid URIs. (remm)
* Fix: Fix populating the classpath with the webapp classloader repositories.
(remm)
* Fix: 69862: Avoid NPE unwrapping Servlet exception which would hide some
exception details. Patch submitted by Eric Blanquer. (remm)
* Jdbc-pool
* Fix: 64083: If the underlying connection has been closed, don't add it to
the pool when it is returned. Pull request #235 by Alex Panchenko. (markt)
* Web applications
* Fix: Manager: Fix abrupt truncation of the HTML and JSON complete server
status output if one or more of the web applications failed to start.
(schultz)
* Add: Manager: Include web application state in the HTML and JSON complete
server status output. (markt)
* Add: Documentation: Expand the documentation to better explain when OCSP is
supported and when it is not. (markt)
* Websocket
* Fix: 69920: When attempting to write to a closed Writer or OutputStream
obtained from a WebSocket session, throw an IOException rather than an
IllegalStateExcpetion as required by Writer and strongly suggested by
OutputStream. (markt)
* Other
* Add: Add property "gpg.sign.files" to optionally disable release artefact
signing with GPG. (rjung)
* Add: Add test.silent property to suppress JUnit console output during test
execution. Useful for cleaner console output when running tests with
multiple threads. (csutherl)
* Update: Update the internal fork of Commons Pool to 2.13.1. (markt)
* Update: Update the internal fork of Commons DBCP to 2.14.0. (markt)

profiles.properties. (csutherl)

current list used by the Apache Web Server (httpd). (markt)
