CVE-2006-7197

CVSS v2.0

7.8

High

VectorAV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:N/A:N
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Apache Tomcat version 5.5.15
Description The issue is related to the AJP connector in Apache Tomcat, which uses an incorrect length for chunks. This can cause a buffer over-read in the ajp process callback function in mod jk, allowing remote attackers to read portions of sensitive memory.
Recommendations For Apache Tomcat version 5.5.15, consider disabling the AJP connector as a temporary workaround until a patch is available. Restrict access to the mod jk module to minimize the risk of exploitation.
