CVE-2011-1419: Apache Tomcat does not follow ServletSecurity annotations

May 17, 2022 (updated January 19, 2024)

Apache Tomcat 7.x before 7.0.11, when web.xml has no security constraints, does not follow ServletSecurity annotations, which allows remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions via HTTP requests to a web application. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2011-1088.
