"summary": "Apache Tomcat Uncontrolled Resource Consumption vulnerability",
"details": "Uncontrolled Resource Consumption vulnerability in the examples web application provided with Apache Tomcat leads to denial of service.\n\nThis issue affects Apache Tomcat: from 11.0.0-M1 through 11.0.1, from 10.1.0-M1 through 10.1.33, from 9.0.0.M1 through 9.9.97. 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.\n\nUsers are recommended to upgrade to version 11.0.2, 10.1.34 or 9.0.98, which fixes the issue.",

Removing the `webapps/examples/` directory in production environments — as recommended by the Apache Tomcat Security Considerations documentation (https://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-9.0-doc/security-howto.html) — eliminates the attack surface entirely.",
