## Description:

This update for tomcat10 fixes the following issues:

Update to Tomcat 10.1.52:

  * CVE-2025-55752: directory traversal via rewrite with possible RCE if PUT is
    enabled (bsc#1252753).
  * CVE-2025-55754: Improper Neutralization of Escape, Meta, or Control
    Sequences vulnerability in Apache Tomcat (bsc#1252905).

    (bsc#1258385).
  * CVE-2026-24734: certificate revocation bypass due to incomplete OCSP
    verification checks (bsc#1258387).

Changelog:

  * 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: 69932: Fix request end access log pattern regression, which would log
    the start time of the request instead. (remm)
  * 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)
  * Fix: Log warnings when the SSO configuration does not comply with the
    documentation. (remm)
  * Update: Deprecate the RemoteAddrFilter and RemoteAddrValve in favour of the
    RemoteCIDRFilter and RemoteCIDRValve. (markt)
  * Fix: 69837: Fix corruption of the class path generated by the Loader when
    running on Windows. (markt)
  * Fix: Reject requests that map to invalid Windows file names earlier. (markt)
  * Fix: 69839: Ensure that changes to session IDs (typically after
    authentication) are promulgated to the SSO Valve to ensure that SSO entries
    are fully clean-up on session expiration. Patch provided by Kim Johan
    Andersson. (markt)
  * Fix: Fix a race condition in the creation of the storage location for the
    FileStore. (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 10.1.45 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: Avoid possible NPEs when using a TLS enabled custom connector. (remm)
  * 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: Prevent concurrent release of OpenSSLEngine resources and the
    termination of the Tomcat Native library as it can cause crashes during
    Tomcat shutdown. (markt)
  * 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: Fix use of deferAccept attribute in JMX, since it is normally only
    removed in Tomcat 11. (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.
  * Fix: 69848: Fix copy/paste errors in 10.1.47 that meant DELETE requests
    received via the AJP connector were processed as OPTIONS requests and
    PROPFIND requests were processed as TRACE. (markt)
  * Fix: Various OCSP processing issues in the OpenSSL FFM code. (dsoumis)
  * General
  * 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)
  * 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)
  * Fix: 69845: When using permessage-deflate with Java 25 onwards, handle the
    underlying Inflater and/or Deflater throwing IllegalStateException when
    closed rather than NullPointerException as they do in Java 24 and earlier.
