+1

Conversely, the version of Tomcat is not relevant, here: it's only the
version of tcnative you are using. If you have 1.1.23 or earlier, then
you are safe from this particular vulnerability (but there may be
other issues with older versions). If you are on 1.1.24-1.1.29, then
you have been vulnerable.

tcnative can be used with any version of Tomcat, though certain
versions of Tomcat have minimum requirements for the tcnative version.

I can't stress enough that once you update to a fixed version, *you
must re-key your server* and obtain a replacement certificate from
your CA.

You must also consider any communication that traversed your system
while vulnerable to be compromised. That means that every password
that went through your system during the period of vulnerability ought
to be changed.

Erm, maybe not. ;) You can actually use pkcs12 and avoid using keytool
altogether.
