Changelog:
Tomcat 9.0.91 (remm)
Catalina
* Fix: Allow JAASRealm to use the configuration source to load a configured
configFile, for easier use with testing. (remm)
* Fix: Add missing algorithm callback to the JAASCallbackHandler. (remm)
* Fix: 69131: Expand the implementation of the filter value of the
Authenticator attribute allowCorsPreflight, so that it applies to all
requests that match the configured URL patterns for the CORS filter, rather
than only applying if the CORS filter is mapped to /*. (markt)
Coyote
* Fix: Improve the algorithm used to identify the IP address to use to unlock
the acceptor thread when a Connector is listening on all local addresses.
Interfaces that are configured for point to point connections or are not
currently up are now skipped. (markt)
* Fix: 69121: Ensure that the onComplete() event is triggered if
AsyncListener.onError() dispatches to a target that throws an exception.
(markt)
* Fix: Following the trailer header field refactoring, -1 is no longer an
allowed value for maxTrailerSize. Adjust documentation accordingly. (remm)
Jasper
* Fix: Update the optimisation in jakarta.el.ImportHandler so it is aware of
new classes added to the java.lang package in Java 23. (markt)
* Fix: Ensure that an exception in toString() still results in an ELException
when an object is coerced to a String using ExpressionFactory.coerceToType
(). (markt)
* Add: Add support for specifying Java 24 (with the value 24) as the compiler
source and/or compiler target for JSP compilation. If used with an Eclipse
JDT compiler version that does not support these values, a warning will be
logged and the default will used. (markt)
* Fix: 69135: When using include directives in a tag file packaged in a JAR
file, ensure that context relative includes are processed correctly.

* Update: Update minimum recommended version of Tomcat Native to 1.3.0. Pull
request #728 provided by Dimitrios Soumis. (markt)
* Update: The system property org.apache.catalina.connector.RECYCLE_FACADES
will now default to true if not specified, which will in turn set the
default value for the discardFacades connector attribute, thus causing
facade objects to be discarded by default. (remm)
* Add: Add RealmBase.getPrincipal(GSSName, GSSCredential, GSSContext) for
retrieving extended/additional information from an established GSS context.
(michaelo)
* Fix: Correct a regression in the fix for 68721 that caused some instances
of LinkageError to be reported as ClassNotFoundException. (markt)
* Fix: Ensure that static resources deployed via a JAR file remain accessible
when the context is configured to use a bloom filter. Based on pull request
#730 provided by bergander. (markt)
* Add: Introduce reference counting so the AprLifecycleListener is more
robust. This particularly targets more complex embedded configurations with
multiple server instances with independent lifecycles where more than one
server instance requires the AprLifecycleListener. (markt)
Coyote

2024-05-07 Tomcat 9.0.89 (remm)
Catalina
* Update: Deprecate and remove sessionCounter (replaced by the addition of
the active session count and the expired session count, as a reasonable
approximation) and duplicates (which does not represent a possible event in
current implementations) statistics from the session manager. (remm)
* Fix: 68890 Align output encoding of JSPs in the Manager webapp with the XML
declarations in those same files. (schultz)
* Fix: Update Basic authentication to implement the requirements of RFC 7617
including the changing of the trimCredentials setting which is now defaults
to false. Note that the trimCredentials setting will be removed in Tomcat
11. (markt)
* Add: Small performance optimization when logging cookies with no values.
(schultz)
* Fix: Correct error handling for asynchronous requests. If the application
performs an dispatch during AsyncListener.onError() the dispatch is now
performed rather than completing the request using the error page
mechanism. (markt)
* Fix: Fix WebDAV lock null (locks for non existing resources) thread safety
and removal. (remm)
* Fix: Add periodic checking for WebDAV locks expiration. (remm)
* Fix: Extend Asn1Parser to parse UTF8Strings. (michaelo)
Coyote
* Fix: Align non-secure and secure writes with NIO and skip the write attempt
when there are no bytes to be written. (markt)
* Fix: Allow any positive value for socket.unlockTimeout. If a negative or
zero value is configured, the default of 250ms will be used. (mark)
* Fix: Reduce the time spent waiting for the connector to unlock. The
previous default of 10s was noticeably too long for cases where the unlock
has failed. The wait time is now 100ms plus twice socket.unlockTimeout.
(markt)
* Fix: Ensure that the onAllDataRead() event is triggered when the request
body uses chunked encoding and is read using non-blocking IO. (markt)
* Fix: 68934: Add debug logging in the latch object when exceeding
maxConnections. (remm)
* Fix: Refactor trailer field handling to use a MimeHeaders instance to store
trailer fields. (markt)
* Fix: Ensure that multiple instances of the same trailer field are handled
correctly. (markt)
* Fix: Fix non-blocking reads of chunked request bodies. (markt)
* Fix: When an invalid HTTP response header was dropped, an off-by-one error
meant that the first header in the response was also dropped. Fix based on
pull request #710 by foremans. (markt)
Jasper
* Add: Add support for specifying Java 23 (with the value 23) as the compiler
source and/or compiler target for JSP compilation. If used with an Eclipse
JDT compiler version that does not support these values, a warning will be
logged and the default will used. (markt)
WebSocket
* Fix: 68884: Reduce the write timeout when writing WebSocket close messages
for abnormal closes. The timeout defaults to 50 milliseconds and may be
controlled using the
org.apache.tomcat.websocket.ABNORMAL_SESSION_CLOSE_SEND_TIMEOUT property in
the user properties collection associated with the WebSocket session.
(markt)
Web applications
* Fix: Examples: Improve performance of WebSocket chat application when
multiple clients disconnect at the same time. (markt)

2024-04-16 Tomcat 9.0.88 (remm)
Catalina
* Update: Add highConcurrencyStatus attribute to the SemaphoreValve to
optionally allow the valve to return an error status code to the client
when a permit cannot be acquired from the semaphore. (remm)
* Add: Add checking of the "age" of the running Tomcat instance since its
build-date to the SecurityListener, and log a warning if the server is old.
(schultz)
* Fix: When using the AsyncContext, throw an IllegalStateException, rather
than allowing an NullPointerException, if an attempt is made to use the
AsyncContext after it has been recycled. (markt)
* Fix: Change the thread-safety mechanism for protecting
StandardServer.services from a simple synchronized lock to a
ReentrantReadWriteLock to allow multiple readers to operate simultaneously.
Based upon a suggestion by Markus Wolfe. (schultz)
* Fix: Improve Service connectors, Container children and Service executors
access sync using a ReentrantReadWriteLock. (remm)
* Fix: Improve handling of integer overflow if an attempt is made to upload a
file via the Servlet API and the file is larger than Integer.MAX_VALUE.
(markt)
* Fix: 68862: Handle possible response commit when processing read errors.
(remm)
Coyote
* Fix: Add threadsMaxIdleTime attribute to the endpoint, to allow configuring
the amount of time before an internal executor will scale back to the
configured minSpareThreads size. (remm)
Jasper
* Fix: Handle the case where the JSP engine forwards a request/response to a
Servlet that uses an OutputStream rather than a Writer. This was triggering
an IllegalStateException on code paths where there was a subsequent attempt
to obtain a Writer. (markt)
* Fix: Correctly handle the case where a tag library is packaged in a JAR
file and the web application is deployed as a WAR file rather than an
unpacked directory. (markt)
* Fix: Prevent the web application's ClassLoader from being pinned by the JSP
compiler if an application uses a custom XMLInputFactory. Based upon a
suggestion from Simon Niederberger. (schultz)
Other

2024-03-14 Tomcat 9.0.87 (remm)
Catalina
* Fix: Minor performance improvement for building filter chains. Based on
ideas from pull request #702 by Luke Miao. (remm)
* Fix: Align error handling for Writer and OutputStream. Ensure use of either
once the response has been recycled triggers a NullPointerException
provided that discardFacades is configured with the default value of true.
(markt)
* Fix: 68692: The standard thread pool implementations that are configured
using the Executor element now implement ExecutorService for better support
NIO2. (remm)
* Fix: 68495: When restoring a saved POST request after a successful FORM
authentication, ensure that neither the URI, the query string nor the
protocol are corrupted when restoring the request body. (markt)
* Fix: 68721: Workaround a possible cause of duplicate class definitions when
using ClassFileTransformers and the transformation of a class also triggers
the loading of the same class. (markt)
* Fix: The rewrite valve should not do a rewrite if the output is identical
to the input. (remm)
* Update: Add a new valveSkip (or VS) rule flag to the rewrite valve to allow
skipping over the next valve in the Catalina pipeline. (remm)
Coyote
* Fix: Improve the HTTP/2 stream prioritisation process. If a stream uses all
of the connection windows and still has content to write, it will now be
added to the backlog immediately rather than waiting until the write
attempt for the remaining content. (markt)
* Fix: Correct a regression in the support for user provided SSLContext
instances that broke the
org.apache.catalina.security.TLSCertificateReloadListener. (markt)
Jasper
* Add: Add support for specifying Java 22 (with the value 22) as the compiler
source and/or compiler target for JSP compilation. If used with an Eclipse
JDT compiler version that does not support these values, a warning will be
logged and the default will used. (markt)
Cluster
* Fix: Avoid updating request count stats on async. (remm)
Other
* Add: Improvements to French translations. (remm)

(csutherl/schultz)
2024-02-19 Tomcat 9.0.86 (remm)
Catalina
* Fix: Correct JPMS and OSGi meta-data for tomcat-enbed-core.jar by removing
reference to org.apache.catalina.ssi package that is no longer included in
the JAR. Based on pull request #684 by Jendrik Johannes. (markt)
* Fix: Fix ServiceBindingPropertySource so that trailing \r\n sequences are
correctly removed from files containing property values when configured to
do so. Bug identified by Coverity Scan. (markt)
* Add: Add improvements to the CSRF prevention filter including the ability
to skip adding nonces for resource name and subtree URL patterns. (schultz)
* Fix: Review usage of debug logging and downgrade trace or data dumping
operations from debug level to trace. (remm)
* Fix: 68089: Further improve the performance of request attribute access for
ApplicationHttpRequest and ApplicationRequest. (markt)
* Fix: 68559: Allow asynchronous error handling to write to the response
after an error during asynchronous processing. (markt)
Coyote
* Fix: Make asynchronous error handling more robust. Ensure that once a
connection is marked to be closed, further asynchronous processing cannot
change that. (markt)
* Fix: Make asynchronous error handling more robust. Ensure that once the
call to AsyncListener.onError() has returned to the container, only
container threads can access the AsyncContext. This protects against
various race conditions that woudl otherwise occur if application threads
continued to access the AsyncContext.
* Fix: Review usage of debug logging and downgrade trace or data dumping
operations from debug level to trace. In particular, most of the HTTP/2
debug logging has been changed to trace level. (remm)
* Fix: Add support for user provided SSLContext instances configured on
SSLHostConfigCertificate instances. Based on pull request #673 provided by
Hakan Alt??nda?. (markt)
* Fix: Improve the Tomcat Native shutdown process to reduce the likelihood of
a JVM crash during Tomcat shutdown. (markt)
* Fix: Partial fix for 68558: Cache the result of converting to String for
request URI, HTTP header names and the request Content-Type value to
improve performance by reducing repeated byte[] to String conversions.
(markt)
* Fix: Improve error reporting to HTTP/2 clients for header processing errors
by reporting problems at the end of the frame where the error was detected
rather than at the end of the headers. (markt)
* Fix: Remove the remaining reference to a stream once the stream has been
recycled. This makes the stream eligible for garbage collection earlier and
thereby improves scalability. (markt)
Jasper
* Fix: 68546: Generate optimal size and types for JSP imports maps, as
suggested by John Engebretson. (remm)
* Fix: Review usage of debug logging and downgrade trace or data dumping
operations from debug level to trace. (remm)
WebSocket
* Fix: Correct a regression in the fix for 66508 that could cause an
UpgradeProcessor leak in some circumstances. (markt)
* Fix: Review usage of debug logging and downgrade trace or data dumping
operations from debug level to trace. (remm)
* Fix: Ensure that WebSocket connection closure completes if the connection
is closed when the server side has used the proprietary suspend/resume
feature to suspend the connection. (markt)

Catalina
* Update: 68378: Align extension to MIME type mappings in the global web.xml
with those in httpd by adding application/vnd.geogebra.slides for ggs, text
/javascript for mjs and audio/ogg for opus. (markt)
Coyote
* Fix: Refactor the VirtualThreadExecutor so that it can be used by the NIO2
connector which was using platform threads even when configured to use
virtual threads. (markt)
* Fix: Correct a regression in the fix for 67675 that broke TLS key file
parsing for PKCS#8 format keys that do not specify an explicit
pseudo-random function and rely on the default. This typically affects keys
generated by OpenSSL 1.0.2. (markt)
* Fix: Allow multiple operations with the same name on introspected mbeans,
fixing a regression caused by the introduction of a second addSslHostConfig
method. (remm)
* Fix: Relax the check that the HTTP Host header is consistent with the host
used in the request line, if any, to make the check case insensitive since
host names are case insensitive. (markt)
* Add: 68348: Add support for the partitioned attribute for cookies. (markt)
Web Applications
* Fix: 68035: Additional fix to the Manager application to enable the
deployment of a web application located in a Host's appBase where the web
application is specified by a bare (no path) WAR or directory name as shown
in the documentation. (markt)
Other

Catalina
* Fix: Background processes should not be run concurrently with lifecycle
operations of a container. (remm)
* Fix: Correct unintended escaping of XML in some WebDAV responses. The XML
list of support locks when provided in response to a PROPFIND request was
incorrectly XML escaped. (markt)
* Fix: 68227: Ensure that AsyncListener.onComplete() is called if
AsyncListener.onError() calls AsyncContext.dispatch(). (markt)
* Fix: 68228: Use a 408 status code if a read timeout occurs during HTTP
request processing. Includes a test case based on code provided by
adwsingh. (markt)
Jasper
* Code: 68119: Refactor the CompositeELResolver to improve performance during
type conversion operations. (markt)

authentication if the user refreshes a page during the FORM authentication
process. Based on a suggestion by Mircea Butmalai. (markt)
* Update: 67926: PEMFile prints unidentifiable string representation of ASN.1
OIDs. (michaelo)
* Fix: 66875: Ensure that setting the request attribute
jakarta.servlet.error.exception is not sufficient to trigger error handling
for the current request and response. (markt)
* Fix: 68054: Avoid some file canonicalization calls introduced by the fix
for 65433. (remm)
* Fix: 68089: Improve performance of request attribute access for
ApplicationHttpRequest and ApplicationRequest. (markt)
* Fix: Use a 400 status code to report an error due to a bad request (e.g. an
invalid trailer header) rather than a 500 status code. (markt)
* Fix: Ensure that an IOException during the reading of the request triggers
always error handling, regardless of whether the application swallows the
exception. (markt)
Coyote
* Add: 66670: Add SSLHostConfig#certificateKeyPasswordFile and SSLHostConfig#
certificateKeystorePasswordFile. (michaelo)
* Add: When calling SSLHostConfigCertificate.setCertificateKeystore(ks),
automatically call setCertificateKeystoreType(ks.getType()). (markt)
* Fix: 67628: Clarify how the ciphers attribute of the SSLHostConfig is used.
(markt)
* Fix: 67666: Ensure TLS connectors using PEM files either work with the
TLSCertificateReloadListener or, in the rare case that they do not, log a
warning on Connector start. (markt)
* Fix: 67675: Support a wider range of KDF and ciphers for PEM files than the
combinations supported by the JVM by default. Specifically, support the
OpenSSL default of HmacSHA256 and DES-EDE3-CBC. (markt)
* Fix: 67927: Reloading TLS configuration can cause the Connector to refuse
new connections or the JVM to crash. (markt)
* Fix: 67934: If both Tomcat Native 1.2.x and 2.0.x are available, prefer
1.2.x since it supports the APR/Native connector whereas 2.0.x does not.
(markt)
* Fix: 67938: Correct handling of large TLS client hello messages that were
causing the TLS handshake to fail. (markt)
* Fix: 68026: Convert selected MessageByte values to String when first
accessed to speed up subsequent accesses and reduce garbage collection.
(markt)
