For information disclosure or file injection, the attack is only possible if writes are enabled for the default servlet, partial PUT requests are supported, and sensitive file uploads occur within a publicly writable directory. The combination of all three of these conditions is uncommon in secure environments. Since most modern Tomcat deployments do not meet all these criteria simultaneously, the overall risk is reduced\n\nThe Tomcat package as shipped in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 and 7 is not affected by this vulnerability because the vulnerable code was introduced in a newer Tomcat version.\n\nRed Hat Satellite is not directly impacted by this issue as it does not include the affected Tomcat package.

Red Hat Satellite users are advised to check the impact state of Red Hat Enterprise Linux as any necessary fixes will be distributed through the platform.
