Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
Apache Tomcat versions 8.5.0 through 8.5.100, 9.0.0.M1 through 9.0.105, 10.1.0-M1 through 10.1.41, and 11.0.0-M1 through 11.0.7 are affected when PreResources or PostResources are mounted somewhere other than the web application root. An attacker can reach those resources through an unexpected path that may not be covered by the same security constraints, bypassing them. Upgrade to Tomcat 11.0.8, 10.1.42, or 9.0.106.
