Ubuntu 7118 Published by

Ubuntu administrators need to install urgent security updates released this week to shield their infrastructure from multiple critical flaws across several popular software packages. The Tomcat patch alone addresses six separate vulnerabilities that could trigger memory exhaustion attacks or allow malicious actors to bypass authentication controls entirely. Smaller notices also fix an Exim logging error while patching command execution risks in HTTP Daemon and denial of service crashes within uriparser. Organizations running Ubuntu 20.04 LTS must prioritize the Samba upgrade since it closes dangerous gaps in file access controls and domain controller security that could otherwise lead to unauthorized modifications or arbitrary code execution across their networks.

[USN-8417-1] Tomcat vulnerabilities


==========================================================================
Ubuntu Security Notice USN-8417-1
June 10, 2026

tomcat9, tomcat10 vulnerabilities
==========================================================================

A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives:

- Ubuntu 26.04 LTS
- Ubuntu 25.10
- Ubuntu 24.04 LTS
- Ubuntu 22.04 LTS
- Ubuntu 20.04 LTS
- Ubuntu 18.04 LTS

Summary:

Several security issues were fixed in Tomcat.

Software Description:
- tomcat10: Servlet and JSP engine
- tomcat9: Servlet and JSP engine

Details:

It was discovered that Tomcat did not properly limit the size of
WebDAV LOCK and PROPFIND request bodies. A remote attacker could
use this issue to cause Tomcat to consume excessive memory,
resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2026-41284)

It was discovered that Tomcat incorrectly validated HTTP/2 header
fields. A remote attacker could use this issue to cause Tomcat to
crash or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2026-41293)

It was discovered that Tomcat did not properly clear HTTP
authentication headers during WebSocket connection upgrades and
redirects. A remote attacker could use this issue to obtain
sensitive credentials. (CVE-2026-42498)

It was discovered that Tomcat incorrectly handled digest
authentication. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to
bypass authentication restrictions. (CVE-2026-43512)

It was discovered that Tomcat incorrectly handled case sensitivity
in LockOutRealm. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to
bypass account lockout protections and obtain sensitive information.
(CVE-2026-43513)

It was discovered that Tomcat incorrectly handled authorization
when multiple method constraints defined the same HTTP method. A
remote attacker could possibly use this issue to bypass
authorization restrictions. (CVE-2026-43515)
