svn commit: r1678578 - /tomcat/tc6.0.x/trunk/webapps/docs/changelog.xml
Author: kkolinko
Date: Sun May 10 16:49:07 2015
New Revision: 1678578
URL: http://svn.apache.org/r1678578
Log:
Correct changelog entry for r1659537 / CVE-2014-0230
1) This is the first commit that introduced the "maxSwallowSize" feature in Tomcat 6.
In Tomcat 7 this feature was implemented in a series of commits gradually improving the feature,
thus a confusion from mentioning only the last one of those changes.
2) To simplify the patch, in Tomcat 6 this feature is configured via a system property instead
of a Connector attribute.
3) Mention CVE number.
