RE: CVE-2024-50379 Apache Tomcat - RCE via write-enabled default servlet

[Thiru]

Hello There,

Good day!

Could you kindly help clarify the following regarding CVE-2024-50379?

In the default Tomcat setup, the readonly initialization parameter of the
DefaultServlet is not write-enabled, even for a case-insensitive file
system (Reference: https://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-9.0-doc/default
-servlet.html).

Given this, am I correct in understanding that this vulnerability should
not affect default Tomcat installations?

I appreciate your guidance and look forward to your response.
Kind regards
Thiru
