Description GLSAMaker/CVETool Bot gentoo-dev 2014-07-21 00:14:13 UTC
CVE-2014-0033 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2014-0033):
  org/apache/catalina/connector/CoyoteAdapter.java in Apache Tomcat 6.0.33
  through 6.0.37 does not consider the disableURLRewriting setting when
  handling a session ID in a URL, which allows remote attackers to conduct
  session fixation attacks via a crafted URL.
