NVD

CVE-2007-6286 Detail

Deferred

This CVE record is not being prioritized for NVD enrichment efforts due to resource or other concerns.

Description

Apache Tomcat 5.5.11 through 5.5.25 and 6.0.0 through 6.0.15, when the native APR connector is used, does not properly handle an empty request to the SSL port, which allows remote attackers to trigger handling of "a duplicate copy of one of the recent requests," as demonstrated by using netcat to send the empty request.
