RHBA-2019:0167 - Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

Updated tomcatjss packages that fix one bug are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.

Description

The tomcatjss package provides a Java Secure Socket Extension (JSSE) implementation using Java Security Services (JSS) for Tomcat, an open source web server and Java servlet container.

This update fixes the following bug:

• Previously, the tomcatjss library ignored the URL to the Online Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP) responder set in the Authority Information Access (AIA) extension of a certificate. As a consequence, the library used the default URL set in the server.xml file. The problem has been fixed. As a result, if a certificate contains a URL in the AIA extension, and tomcatjss has been correctly configured, the system verifies the certificate using the OCSP responder contained in the AIA extension. (BZ#1632618)

Users of tomcatjss are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix this bug.
