Navin,

You will probably want to switch to Tomcat 9.0.62 if you are using Spring MVC or Spring WebFlow due to a recent vulnerability.

Subject: [EXTERNAL] Tomcat 10 and Java 17

Hello !!

I am using Tomcat 9.0.60 for my web and HTTP front end server applications,
with Java 8 on RHEL 7.8 OS. My plan is to update to Java 17 with RHEL 8 and
would like to clarify the below doubts, considering the fact that there are
no major architectural changes between 9 and 10 (it is mainly the javax to
jakarta package naming).

1. Is there a recommended version of Tomcat for Java 17. Tomcat 10 or the
10.1 (once it is released) or I can continue with the 9.0.60 release itself?
2. Once 10.1 is formally released, will all the common bug fixes be
available in Tomcat 9 and10 as well or at least in 10.

Thanks
Navin
