NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream tomcat-el-2.2-api package and not the tomcat-el-2.2-api package as distributed by RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:7 relevant fixed versions and status.

Session fixation vulnerability in Apache Tomcat 7.x before 7.0.66, 8.x before 8.0.30, and 9.x before 9.0.0.M2, when different session settings are used for deployments of multiple versions of the same web application, might allow remote attackers to hijack web sessions by leveraging use of a requestedSessionSSL field for an unintended request, related to CoyoteAdapter.java and Request.java.
