Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Apache Tomcat JK Web Server Connector versions 1.2.19 through 1.2.20
Tomcat versions 4.1.34 and 5.5.20

For Apache Tomcat JK Web Server Connector versions 1.2.19 and 1.2.20, consider updating to a version that is not affected by this issue.
For Tomcat versions 4.1.34 and 5.5.20, consider updating to a version that is not affected by this issue.
As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to long URLs to minimize the risk of exploitation.
