CVE-2018-8020 (opens in a new tab)How to fix?
Upgrade Debian:unstable tomcat-native to version 1.2.17-1 or higher.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream tomcat-native package and not the tomcat-native package as distributed by Debian.
See How to fix? for Debian:unstable relevant fixed versions and status.
Apache Tomcat Native 1.2.0 to 1.2.16 and 1.1.23 to 1.1.34 has a flaw that does not properly check OCSP pre-produced responses, which are lists (multiple entries) of certificate statuses. Subsequently, revoked client certificates may not be properly identified, allowing for users to authenticate with revoked certificates to connections that require mutual TLS. Users not using OCSP checks are not affected by this vulnerability.
