The Apache Tomcat team announces the immediate availability of Apache Tomcat 8.5.63.
Apache Tomcat 8 is an open source software implementation of the Java Servlet, JavaServer Pages, Java Unified Expression Language, Java WebSocket and Java Authentication Service Provider Interface for Containers technologies. Apache Tomcat 8.5.x replaces 8.0.x and includes new features pulled forward from the 9.0.x branch. The notable changes since 8.5.61 include: provide customised string attribute value to type conversion within JSPs. This allows applications to provide a conversion implementation that is optimised for the application. - Add peerAddress to coyote request, which contains the IP address of the direct connection peer. If a reverse proxy sits in front of Tomcat and the RemoteIp(Valve|Filter) is used, the peerAddress is likely to differ from the remoteAddress. The remoteAddress is likely to contain the address of the client in front of the reverse proxy, not the address of the proxy itself. - Escape elements in the access log that need to be escaped for the access log to be parsed unambiguously.
