Hi,

I've ported the cve-related changes for 10.0.x in [1].
If we want to do 9.0.1 / 9.1.0 (whatever we want to name it), we should
integrate these change, so happy to have some eyes on it.

Patching Tomcat inside TomEE will most likely confuse security
scanners, so we would need to add a disclaimer on the download pages to
state, that we backported the cve patches. 

I am still +1 for a release as we (at university) have some internal
webapps already running on 9.0 (so I and our CISO would be more than
happy to get a "official" patched version).

Don't think that we should than do more than necessary on 9.0.x / 9.1.x
until we get a flying 10 alpha/milestone but as we didn't declare it
eol, we should imho provide some sort of patched version rather sooner
than later.

Just my 2 cents ;-)

Gruß
Richard
