Risk Analysis

This critical vulnerability in Apache Tomcat is due to insufficient technical documentation regarding the secure configuration of the EncryptInterceptor. While not a direct code flaw, the lack of clear guidance can lead to insecure deployments, potentially resulting in information disclosure. With a CVSS score of 9.1, this issue poses a significant risk, but there is no information on exploitation likelihood (EPSS) or confirmed exploitation (KEV).

No public exploit is known for this vulnerability, and it has not been confirmed as exploited by CISA. The vulnerability is remotely exploitable over the network with low attack complexity and requires no privileges or user interaction.

Recommended Action

Users are recommended to upgrade Apache Tomcat to version 11.0.24, 10.1.57, or 9.0.120. Review and apply the updated documentation for securely configuring the EncryptInterceptor.
