  Do you suggest me to upgrade to Tomcat 6 or 7? What about jdk? 1.6
or 1.7?
1.6 is more widely tested (many years), but for a new system I would
go with 1.7.
It's not a new system, it's been running for 3 years already. I don't
want to risk that any library has changed its behavior with tomcat 7 or
something similar.

I heard that Oracle plans to stop provide free updates for 1.6 this
summer. So they will be available only as "Java for Business".
Does it mean that it is probably better to go for 1.7 instead?

Maybe you should have a look at oracles lifecycle policy: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/eol-135779.html

If you need to provide a secure system with current patches you should take the effort to upgrade to java 7. This provides you with 3 more years of Oracle updates.
