Re: Fix CVE tomcat 6.0.18 with out upgrade
Hi Dan, We might consider for upgrading the tomcat later, due to to supportability concerns from Autonomy we cannot upgrade it to any of the higher version. but right now we are looking to apply the fix for all CVE's we identified, it will be great if you can let me know the procedure.

The only available procedure is to upgrade. We do not provide patches for old releases.

I don't know that vendor, but it sounds like you might need to have a conversation with them and see what is taking them so incredibly long (6.0.18 was released in Jul 2008) to upgrade. but right now we are looking to apply the fix for all CVE's we identified, it will be great if you can let me know the procedure. Each of the security issues that have been fixed are documented at the link you included. http://tomcat.apache.org/security-6.html#Apache_Tomcat_6.x_vulnerabilities You might be able to go through and apply mitigations for each of them, but that's going to be a long and tedious process. This is why you should really consider upgrading. That will bring everything up-to-date in one step.

Then upgrade, but keep it within the Tomcat 6.0.x versions. Going up to 6.0.37 should be perfectly safe. Put up a test env and try it. --David - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org

I see the build instructions in below link but I was looking for applying the fixes without upgrade. You would have to read the entire Subversion repository history involving Tomcat, evaluate each commit to determine its applicability to each CVE, apply them in order, fix any conflicts, then build the resulting source tree. Oh, and you'd then once again have an unsupported version of Tomcat (unsupported by both the ASF and Autonomy). Tomcat does not provide patches for CVEs: instead, the Tomcat team provides whole new versions that include (alleged) fixes for those CVEs. It's time to upgrade: you are hideously out of date. If Autonomy won't support running on a properly-patched version of Tomcat, then you shouldn't be running their software. - -chris -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG/MacGPG2 v2.0.17 (Darwin) Comment: GPGTools - http://gpgtools.org Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQIcBAEBCAAGBQJRio2AAAoJEBzwKT+lPKRY7bsP/24Zj3JyUI2IAkvpJHIOLom3 rJkIwsgj2fqugxY4pjFGjQKH/6hYTAlXJl+4SvWaI3JsQYpKpg0jTEXiVJNH5aNt hvGYEb0SLXQ4kjIY0LM/MtdFMms7lAABH2/ulIj3eQyTY/1xbJY9sUpZQvqX2TAB O4WwoM+mhtP+J1fUSiIT1SkeAjGvUkndsrO+Rmb4craR18yq5e49fsrL8UbsjNSF +579TywwiNW0JqefFn88AAXvtRUXQdnSNaeCTTIZOgbQqcDp+UoByWokOFc4jjon xpe5W2rQZCnwz5TDO7yNSUcJrtQA0YFEOUURgn5/Rxi6wSzRobSTuiKbXYq1+fuv Ju4RwzRc7+Zu/q5YtiWQd0/HUOmsxtO+9MuF/GmXGm8+FHEnP9YZZ46waRhfCd9Y iR1wbwW39ODWYIUUbL8TGqGvJpb/bvEj4oBidYFSe5BRMRKFEFZ69QY2UCJE8d70 +WWCXkTVv2sqKxkuJCqCheWlrhLRTWWJUeRIBKay4CJQvTPYx0itTX6CVH3Louve q7uXAagFh5Dftcq5pKQGM94Ot+ph2pGaipXzYzJE6UnAdoY4uuyZVLCPA0jUICx+ ld4yFFyXosXbG2ARFMphIbZmzEjnURbDKU+40IhHvBgTmZS0UA7bFjfdDDhdS2Gq ZP2D2XBEowuUulNkkqjl =w2M5 -END PGP SIGNATURE- - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
