URL: http://advisories.mageia.org/MGASA-2013-0191.html
Type: security
Affected Mageia releases: 2, 3
CVE: CVE-2013-2071

Description:
java/org/apache/catalina/core/AsyncContextImpl.java in Apache Tomcat 7.x
before 7.0.40 does not properly handle the throwing of a RuntimeException
in an AsyncListener in an application, which allows context-dependent
attackers to obtain sensitive request information intended for other
applications in opportunistic circumstances via an application that records
the requests that it processes (CVE-2013-2071).
