Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

Apache Tomcat (tomcat, tomcat-tribes and tomcat-embed-core packages) versions 9.0.13 through 9.0.116, 10.1.0-M1 through 10.1.53, and 11.0.0-M1 through 11.0.20 are affected. The cloud membership component for clustering writes the Kubernetes bearer token to a log file, so anyone who can read those logs can obtain the token. Upgrade to 9.0.117, 10.1.54, 11.0.21 or later.
