CVE-2025-66614 Details
Description
Improper Input Validation vulnerability. This issue affects Apache Tomcat: from 11.0.0-M1 through 11.0.14, from 10.1.0-M1 through 10.1.49, from 9.0.0-M1 through 9.0.112. The following versions were EOL at the time the CVE was created but are known to be affected: 8.5.0 through 8.5.100. Older EOL versions are not affected. Tomcat did not validate that the host name provided via the SNI extension was the same as the host name provided in the HTTP host header field. If Tomcat was configured with more than one virtual host and the TLS configuration for one of those hosts did not require client certificate authentication but another one did, it was possible for a client to bypass the client certificate authentication by sending different host names in the SNI extension and the HTTP host header field. The vulnerability only applies if client certificate authentication is only enforced at the Connector. It does not apply if client certificate authentication is enforced at the web application. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 11.0.15 or later, 10.1.50 or later or 9.0.113 or later, which fix the issue.
A vulnerability allowing clients to bypass client certificate authentication has been identified in Apache Tomcat versions 11.0.0-M1 through 11.0.14, 10.1.0-M1 through 10.1.49, and 9.0.0-M1 through 9.0.112. This issue arises because Tomcat did not properly validate that the host name in the SNI extension matched the host name in the HTTP host header. In configurations with multiple virtual hosts, if one host's TLS settings did not require client certificates while another did, a client could exploit this mismatch to bypass authentication. This vulnerability is relevant only when client certificate verification is enforced at the Connector level, not at the web application level.
Users should upgrade to Apache Tomcat versions 11.0.15 or later, 10.1.50 or later, or 9.0.113 or later.
