This update for tomcat fixes the following issues:
Tomcat was updated to version 9.0.82 (jsc#PED-6376, jsc#PED-6377):

+ Add: 65770: Provide a lifecycle listener that will
automatically reload TLS configurations a set time before the
certificate is due to expire. This is intended to be used with
third-party tools that regularly renew TLS certificates.
+ Fix: Fix handling of an error reading a context descriptor on
deployment.
+ Fix: Fix rewrite rule qsd (query string discard) being ignored
if qsa was also use, while it should instead take precedence.
+ Fix: 67472: Send fewer CORS-related headers when CORS is not
actually being engaged.
+ Add: Improve handling of failures within recycle() methods.
+ Fix: 67670: Fix regression with HTTP compression after code
refactoring.
+ Fix: 67198: Ensure that the AJP connector attribute
tomcatAuthorization takes precedence over the
tomcatAuthentication attribute when processing an auth_type
attribute received from a proxy server.
+ Fix: 67235: Fix a NullPointerException when an AsyncListener
handles an error with a dispatch rather than a complete.
+ Fix: When an error occurs during asynchronous processing,
ensure that the error handling process is only triggered once
per asynchronous cycle.
+ Fix: Fix logic issue trying to match no argument method in
IntropectionUtil.
+ Fix: Improve thread safety around readNotify and writeNotify
in the NIO2 endpoint.
+ Fix: Avoid rare thread safety issue accessing message digest
map.
+ Fix: Improve statistics collection for upgraded connections
under load.
+ Fix: Align validation of HTTP trailer fields with standard
fields.
+ Fix: Improvements to HTTP/2 overhead protection (bsc#1216182,
CVE-2023-44487)
+ Fix: 67664: Correct a regression in the clean-up of
unnecessary use of fully qualified class names in 9.0.81
that broke the jdbc-pool.
+ Fix: 67080: Improve performance of EL expressions in JSPs that
use implicit objects
- Update to Tomcat 9.0.80 (jsc#PED-6376, jsc#PED-6377):
- Catalina:
+ Add RateLimitFilter which can be used to mitigate DoS and Brute Force attacks
+ Move the management of the utility executor from the init()/destroy() methods of components to the start()/stop()
methods.
+ Add org.apache.catalina.core.StandardVirtualThreadExecutor, a virtual thread based executor that may be used with
one or more Connectors to process requests received by those Connectors using virtual threads. This Executor
requires a minimum Java version of Java 21.
+ Add a per session Semaphore to the PersistentValve that ensures that, within a single Tomcat instance, there is no
more than one concurrent request per session. Also expand the debug logging to include whether a request bypasses
the Valve and the reason if a request fails to obtain the per session Semaphore.
+ Ensure that the default servlet correctly escapes file names in directory listings when using XML output.
+ Add a numeric last modified field to the XML directory listings produced by the default servlet to enable sorting
in the XSLT.
+ Attempts to lock a collection with WebDAV may incorrectly fail if a child collection has an expired lock.
+ Deprecate the xssProtectionEnabled setting from the HttpHeaderSecurityFilter and change the default value to false
as support for the associated HTTP header has been removed from all major browsers.
+ Add org.apache.catalina.core.ContextNamingInfoListener, a listener which creates context naming information
environment entries.
+ Add org.apache.catalina.core.PropertiesRoleMappingListener, a listener which populates the context's role mapping
from a properties file.
+ Fix an edge case where intra-web application symlinks would be followed if the web applications were deliberately
crafted to allow it even when allowLinking was set to false.
+ Add utility config file resource lookup on Context to allow looking up resources from the webapp
(prefixed with webapp:) and make the resource lookup API more visible.
+ Fix potential database connection leaks in DataSourceUserDatabase identified by Coverity Scan.
+ Make parsing of ExtendedAccessLogValve patterns more robust.
+ Fix failure trying to persist configuration for an internal credential handler.
+ When serializing a session during the session presistence process, do not log a warning that null Principals are
not serializable.
