CVE-2025-24813 — Apache Tomcat: Potential RCE and/or information disclosure and/or information corruption with partial PUT

Affected: Apache Software Foundation Apache Tomcat

Path Equivalence: 'file.Name' (Internal Dot) leading to Remote Code Execution and/or Information disclosure and/or malicious content added to uploaded files via write enabled Default Servlet in Apache Tomcat.

This issue affects Apache Tomcat: from 11.0.0-M1 through 11.0.2, from 10.1.0-M1 through 10.1.34, from 9.0.0.M1 through 9.0.98. The following versions were EOL at the time the CVE was created but are known to be affected: 8.5.0 though 8.5.100. Other, older, EOL versions may also be affected.

If all of the following were true, a malicious user was able to view security sensitive files and/or inject content into those files: - writes enabled for the default servlet (disabled by default) - support for partial PUT (enabled by default) - a target URL for security sensitive uploads that was a sub-directory of a target URL for public uploads - attacker knowledge of the names of security sensitive files being uploaded - the security sensitive files also being uploaded via partial PUT

If all of the following were true, a malicious user was able to perform remote code execution: - writes enabled for the default servlet (disabled by default) - support for partial PUT (enabled by default) - application was using Tomcat's file based session persistence with the default storage location - application included a library that may be leveraged in a deserialization attack

Users are recommended to upgrade to version 11.0.3, 10.1.35 or 9.0.99, which fixes the issue.

USN-7525-1 — Tomcat vulnerability

Affected: Ubuntu:Pro:18.04:LTS: tomcat9, Ubuntu:Pro:20.04:LTS: tomcat9, Ubuntu:Pro:22.04:LTS: tomcat9, Ubuntu:Pro:24.04:LTS: tomcat10

It was discovered that Apache Tomcat incorrectly implemented partial PUT functionality by replacing path separators with dots in temporary files. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to access sensitive files, inject malicious content, or execute remote code.
