Products

• CA Test Data Manager (Data Finder / Grid Tools)

Issue/Introduction

The Tomcat vulnerability with below description impacts Test Data Manager:

Improper Handling of Exceptional Conditions, Uncontrolled Resource Consumption vulnerability in Apache Tomcat. When processing an HTTP/2 stream, Tomcat did not handle some cases of excessive HTTP headers correctly. This led to a miscounting of active HTTP/2 streams which in turn led to the use of an incorrect infinite timeout which allowed connections to remain open which should have been closed. This issue affects Apache Tomcat: from 11.0.0-M1 through 11.0.0-M20, from 10.1.0-M1 through 10.1.24, from 9.0.0-M1 through 9.0.89. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 11.0.0-M21, 10.1.25 or 9.0.90, which fixes the issue.

Environment

TDM 4.11.x

Resolution

Steps to remediate:

Apply the TDM Portal patch 4.11.103 or higher where the Tomcat has been upgraded to version 10.1.25.
