[ANN] Apache Tomcat 8.5.61 available
The Apache Tomcat team announces the immediate availability of Apache
Tomcat 8.5.61.
Apache Tomcat 8 is an open source software implementation of the Java
Servlet, JavaServer Pages, Java Unified Expression Language, Java
WebSocket and Java Authentication Service Provider Interface for
Containers technologies.
Apache Tomcat 8.5.x replaces 8.0.x and includes new features pulled
forward from the 9.0.x branch. The notable changes since 8.5.60 include:
- Align the behaviour of ServletContext.getRealPath(String path) with
the recent clarification from the Servlet specification project. If
the path parameter does not start with / then Tomcat processes the
call as if / is appended to the beginning of the provided path.
- Fix a potential file descriptor leak when WebSocket connections are
attempted and fail. Patch provided by Maurizio Adami.
- Ensure that the LoadBalancerDrainingValve uses the correct setting
for the secure attribute for any session cookies it creates. Based on
a pull request by Andreas Kurth.
