The proposed Apache Tomcat 8.5.23 release is now available for voting.

The major changes compared to the 8.5.21 release are:

- Fix CVE-2017-12617

- Add ExtractingRoot, a new WebResourceRoot implementation that extracts
   JARs to the work directory for improved performance when deploying
   packed WAR files.

Along with lots of other bug fixes and improvements.


It can be obtained from:
https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/tomcat/tomcat-8/v8.5.23/
The Maven staging repo is:
https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapachetomcat-1157/
The svn tag is:
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/tomcat/tc8.5.x/tags/TOMCAT_8_5_23/

The proposed 8.5.23 release is:
[ ] Broken - do not release
[X] Stable - go ahead and release as 8.5.23

+1 to release.

One observation concerning compiled examples classes see below.

Details
=======

- SHA1 and MD5 OK
- signatures OK
- key in KEYS file
- gz and zip for src and bin consistent
- src consistent with svn tag
  - except bin shell scripts are not executable in src tarball
    (not critical)
- builds fine
- build result looks consistent with binaries
- no checkstyle complaints
- no Javadoc warnings

- JMX MBean Comparison with 8.5.22:
  - ProtocolHandler MBean new attribute "allowHostHeaderMismatch: true"
    (expected)

- Unit tests: No failures

Build and tests were done using Java 1.7.0_80. OS was Solaris 10 Sparc, tcnative was 1.2.14 based on APR 1.6.2 and OpenSSL 1.0.2l plus patches.

One change started in 8.5.21: when I build TC from the src distribution, the binary class files in the examples started to differ from the ones in the bin dist. Example file:

webapps/examples/WEB-INF/classes/async/Async0.class

Until 8.5.20 the size was 2883 bytes and md5sum was 7e5114a9d4b873d0582f390bff112e33. These values are still correct for 8.5.23 when I rebuild TC, but the files in the bin archives have size 2899 and md5sum d2e1a9b23546290f8d22c75eb5ad216a. I am not too worried about that but somehow curious what might have changed during the release build between 8.5.20 and 8.5.21.

Thanks for RM and regards,

Rainer
