    Two security issues have been found in the Tomcat servlet and JSP engine:

    CVE-2012-3544

    The input filter for chunked transfer encodings could trigger high
    resource consumption through malformed CRLF sequences, resulting in
    denial of service.

    The FormAuthenticator module was vulnerable to session fixation.

    For the oldstable distribution (squeeze), these problems have been fixed in version 6.0.35-1+squeeze3. This update also provides fixes for CVE-2012-2733,CVE-2012-3546,CVE-2012-4431, CVE-2012-4534,CVE-2012-5885, CVE-2012-5886 and CVE-2012-5887, which were all fixed for stable already.

    version 6.0.35-6+deb7u1.

    For the unstable distribution (sid), these problems will be fixed soon.

    We recommend that you upgrade your tomcat6 packages.
