You are saying a malicious actor would need to be on the server itself to load an application?

Maybe the first thing to ask yourself, is if you are in a situation where you are really vulnerable to this vulnerability. I am not an expert, but from the description, it sounds like this vulnerability could only be exploited by someone who has the possibility to load a malicious web application into the Tomcat system, and have it be run. Is that your case ?
