- More information:
-
The security update of Tomcat 7 announced as DLA-1400-1 introduced a regression for applications that make use of the Equinox OSGi framework. The MANIFEST file of tomcat-jdbc.jar in libtomcat7-java contains an invalid version number which was automatically derived from the Debian package version. This caused an OSGi exception.
For Debian 8
Jessie
, this issue has been fixed in version 7.0.56-3+really7.0.88-2.We recommend that you upgrade your tomcat7 packages.
