When will Adobe provide a hotfix for TomCat 7.0.54

I can upgrade Tomcat myself, but that approach isn't documented and isn't likely to be supported by Adobe.


Tomcat is bundled as part of ColdFusion 11, so I would hope Adobe would either provide a hotfix or suggest a supported method to upgrade Tomcat.


Tomcat 7.0.59 fixes the following issues:

  • Security Manager bypass CVE-2014-7810
  • Request Smuggling issue CVE-2014-0227
  • Denial of Service issue CVE-2014-0230

Hi Anit, thanks for the fast replys.  Any idea on how long it will take before the team determines if the issue impacts ColdFusion 11 with hotfix 5?  I presume it will take a while for the correct patch to be built.  If the issues above do impact ColdFusion is this forum an acceptable way to make that request, or should it file the request in Adobe's bug base?

I have raised it to the respective team. This will take some time, because we are referring to the change in internal architecture (Tomcat, in this case). This has to be tested and verified as well.

Hi Anit.  I don't want to be a pest, but what is a reasonable expectation for how long it will take to determine if ColdFusion is even impacted by this issue?  If ColdFusion is impacted by that issue, then how does it take for other similarly complex security issues to be tested and verified?  I'm just trying to adjust my expectations for timelines on this issue.

Hi Joe,

As of now, I can only update you that, we have decided to update Tomcat. The estimated time frame is not yet sure. It will definitely take time.

We appreciate your cooperation.

Hi Anit!  Hopefully, I'm not bothering you too often on this issue.  Any thoughts on when the community could expect an Adobe approved updated version of Tomcat?

Any progress on this hotfix?  I'm sorry to be such a pest, but our vulnerability scans are still showing this as an issue.

I understand Joe. But as mentioned earlier, it will be in the next CF update. It's too early, to specify an exact date as of now.
