Hello All,

We are using -
Tomcat Version - 6.0.18
Operating System Version : HP-UX 11.31
SSL Version -  OpenSSL 0.9.8k 25 Mar 2009
Port - 8443

By running the venerability assessment test we are getting the following 
observation 

The remote service encrypts traffic using TLS / SSL and permits clients to 
renegotiate connections. The computational requirements for renegotiating 
a connection are asymmetrical between the client and the server, with the 
server performing several times more work. Since the remote host does not 
appear to limit the number of renegotiations for a single TLS / SSL 
connection, this permits a client to open several simultaneous connections 
and repeatedly renegotiate them, possibly leading to a denial of service 
condition.

Please suggest the recommended solution for tomcat

Thanks & Regards
Deepak Kumar
