CVSS v4.0
8.7
Alta
| Vetor | AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Apache Tomcat versions 5.5.0 through 5.5.11
Description
The issue allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service by consuming CPU resources via a large number of simultaneous requests to list a web directory that contains a large number of files. This is due to the expensive calls required to generate the content for the directory listings.
Recommendations
For Apache Tomcat versions 5.5.0 through 5.5.11, consider disabling directory listings to prevent exploitation, especially in directories with a large number of files. As a temporary workaround, keep the number of files in each directory to a minimum. A proposed patch is expected to improve performance by caching directory listings, which would be a more permanent solution.
