REPORT #513 Details.

Project: Tomcat
Category: Bug Report
SubCategory: New Bug Report
Class: swbug
State: received
Priority: high
Severity: critical
Confidence: public
Environment: 
   Release: Tomcat3.2
   JVM Release: 1.3.0-C
   Operating System: Windows 2000
   OS Release: SP1
   Platform: Windows

Synopsis: 
(Security)Problem accessing via HTTP without protocol

Description:
The response is returned as follows with the information of headers
though GET request is transmitted without giving the version of
protocol toward the HTTP server which Tomcat buildins.

  $ telnet localhost 8080
  Trying 127.0.0.1...
  Connected to doom2000.
  Escape character is '^]'.
  GET /examples/servlets/index.html
  HTTP/1.0 200 OK
  Content-Type: text/html
  Content-Length: 4516
  Last-Modified: Sat, 02 Dec 2000 17:47:08 GMT
  Servlet-Engine: Tomcat Web Server/3.2 (final) (JSP 1.1; Servlet 2.2; Java 1.3.0; 
Windows 2000 5.0 x86; java.vendor=Sun Microsystems Inc.)

  <!doctype html public "-//w3c//dtd html 4.0 transitional//en">
  <html>

  <snip!>

  </html>
  Connection closed by foreign host.

  $

When I access the HTTP server of Apatch to be the same, Apache don't
send header's information.

Moreover, it is possible to get the source code of jsp as follows:

  $ telnet localhost 8080
  Trying 127.0.0.1...
  Connected to doom2000.
  Escape character is '^]'.
  GET /examples/hello.jsp
  HTTP/1.0 200 OK
  Content-Type: text/plain
  Content-Length: 108
  Last-Modified: Sat, 02 Dec 2000 15:40:27 GMT
  Servlet-Engine: Tomcat Web Server/3.2 (final) (JSP 1.1; Servlet 2.2; Java 1.3.0; 
Windows 2000 5.0 x86; java.vendor=Sun Microsystems Inc.)

  <%@ page contentType="text/html %>
  Hello, World!
  Connection closed by foreign host.

  $

Such behavior(specification?) of the HTTP server of Tomcat, won't
there be a security problem ?
