            Bug ID: 62476
           Summary: Expires header shall use GMT timezone
           Product: Tomcat 9
           Version: 9.0.8
          Hardware: PC
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Catalina
          Assignee: dev@tomcat.apache.org
          Reporter: knst.koli...@gmail.com
  Target Milestone: -----

This issue was originally reported in a pull request 
https://github.com/apache/tomcat/pull/115

I am confirming the issue and stating it here for a more clear description.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Start Tomcat
2. Open a Browser and configure it to inspect network traffic (e.g. open
"Network" tab in Developer's tools in Firefox)
3. Navigate to
http://localhost:8080/examples/jsp/security/protected/index.jsp

ACTUAL BEHAVIOR, Tomcat 9:
The following response headers are sent by the server:
[[[
HTTP/1.1 200 
Cache-Control: private
Expires: Thu, 01 Jan 1970 03:00:00 MSK
Set-Cookie: JSESSIONID=1D318BE83811595C4AAB11B7859D613B; Path=/examples;
HttpOnly
Content-Type: text/html;charset=ISO-8859-1
Content-Length: 650
Date: Wed, 20 Jun 2018 13:04:40 GMT
]]]

EXPECTED BEHAVIOR:
The "Expires" header should be in GMT, like the "Date" header already is.

SPECIFICATION:
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7234#section-5.3
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7231#section-7.1.1.1

The chapter 7.1.1.1 defines "IMF-fixdate" production with literal string of
"GMT". Obsolete date time formats there ("obs-date") do not cover this case
either: they are for rfc850 and asctime dates.

> GMT          = %x47.4D.54 ; "GMT", case-sensitive



This issue is reproducible with Tomcat 9.
It is reproducible with Tomcat 7.0.88 as well.
