DO NOT REPLY [Bug 51828] New: Tomcat vulnerable to CVE-2011-3192 denial of service

https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=51828

             Bug #: 51828
           Summary: Tomcat vulnerable to CVE-2011-3192 denial of service
           Product: Tomcat 7
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Catalina
        AssignedTo: dev@tomcat.apache.org
        ReportedBy: robert@cosmicrealms.com
    Classification: Unclassified


So according to:
http://serverfault.com/questions/304739/is-tomcat-vulnerable-to-the-apache-dos-vulnerability-in-cve-2011-3192

Tomcat 7 is vulnerable to the denial of service attack detailed in
CVE-2011-3192

I didn't see any other bugs in Bugzilla covering this, so I thought I should
submit one.

According to that page, Tim Funk answers correctly, quoting him...

"Its not a vulnerability. read the Default servlet code. It loads the resource
once. It also reads all the range offsets. Then it iterates through all the
offsets serving the content bases on the original resource. Which is DIFFERENT
as to how apache httpd did it. So it will not trigger an OOM exception."

No ... its not.

If this were a vulnerability ... please do not use bugzilla but the security
mailing list.

(I also update the the stack overflow entry to correct any FUD)
