Resolution

To mitigate these vulnerabilities, you must upgrade the tomcat version to 8.5.70. Follow these steps:

  1. Stop the 'CA Business Intelligence Tomcat' service
  2. Go to the following directory:-
    • cd /CA/SC/CA Business Intelligence/Apache-tomcat
  3. Take a backup of the Apache-tomcat folder
  4. Download the attached zip file from tomcat-8.5.70_1648465690090.zip
  5. Unzip the zip file and replace the files under the Apache-tomcat folder.
  6. Start the 'CA Business Intelligence Tomcat' service.

After replacing the files in the apache-tomcat folder, port number is changed to default.

  1. Modify the port information with older tomcat version.
  2. Change to the directory: \tomcat-8.5.70\conf\
  3. Edit the server.xml file from the directory, and update the <Connector> parameter with the following changes:

<Connector connectionTimeout="20000" port="8080" protocol="HTTP/1.1" redirectPort="8443"/>
