Red Hat Security Advisory 2015-0991-01 - Apache Tomcat is a servlet container for the Java Servlet and JavaServer Pages technologies. It was discovered that the ChunkedInputFilter in Tomcat did not fail subsequent attempts to read input after malformed chunked encoding was detected. A remote attacker could possibly use this flaw to make Tomcat process part of the request body as new request, or cause a denial of service.

3. Description:
Apache Tomcat is a servlet container for the Java Servlet and JavaServer
Pages (JSP) technologies.
It was discovered that the ChunkedInputFilter in Tomcat did not fail
subsequent attempts to read input after malformed chunked encoding was
detected. A remote attacker could possibly use this flaw to make Tomcat
process part of the request body as new request, or cause a denial of
service. (CVE-2014-0227)
This update also fixes the following bug:
* Before this update, the tomcat6 init script did not try to kill the
tomcat process if an attempt to stop it was unsuccessful, which would
prevent tomcat from restarting properly. The init script was modified to
correct this issue. (BZ#1207048)
All Tomcat 6 users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which
correct these issues. Tomcat must be restarted for this update to take
effect.
4. Solution:
Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata
