Now I have a simple question: Do you think this is a Tomcat bug or not? About the security issue (or not): We _did_ test our application. We just didn't expect that a working JSP would change its behaviour just because we include it from another one! Also think about third party components. If you have a third party JSP that does a forward, you can never be sure it works within an include. The bottom line is: JSPs should _never_ be served as static content (except an application explicitly changes the .jsp mapping or serves it itself). Everything else is at least a bug. Sorry for repeating this again and again, but Orion and Resin don't have this issue and I'd love to fix Tomcat provided I get some positive feedback regarding my proposed solution.
