    Package : tomcat8
    CVE ID : CVE-2016-6816 CVE-2016-8735 CVE-2016-9774 CVE-2016-9775
    Debian Bug : 802312 845385 845393

    Multiple security vulnerabilities were discovered in the Tomcat
    servlet and JSP engine, as well as in its Debian-specific maintainer
    scripts. Those flaws allowed for privilege escalation, information
    disclosure, and remote code execution.

    As part of this update, several regressions stemming from incomplete
    fixes for previous vulnerabilities were also fixed.

    For the stable distribution (jessie), these problems have been fixed in
    version 8.0.14-1+deb8u5.

    For the testing (stretch) and unstable (sid) distributions, these
    problems have been fixed in version 8.5.8-2.

    We recommend that you upgrade your tomcat8 packages.
