The limited information that has been published was released by RedHat in breach of the embargo that the Apache Tomcat team had placed on it. To say the Tomcat team is not happy with RedHat would be an understatement. This was fixed in 8.0.x in 8.0.9 onwards. This was fixed in 7.0.x in 7.0.55 onwards. This has been fixed in svn for 6.0.x and will be in 6.0.44 onwards. Expect the 6.0.44 release shortly.
