Apache Tomcat 4.0.3 for Windows allows remote attackers to obtain the web root path via an HTTP request for a resource that does not exist, such as lpt9, which leaks the information in an error message.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This is an old Apache Tomcat information disclosure issue on Windows. A remote user could trigger an error that reveals the server's web root path. That does not directly grant access, but it can expose internal filesystem details useful for later attacks. Exposure is most likely limited to legacy Windows servers still running Apache Tomcat 4.0.3 and returning verbose error messages to remote clients. The source bundle does not identify other affected versions or products. Treat this as a legacy hygiene issue unless an affected internet-facing Tomcat 4.0.3 system is found. Prioritize discovery and retirement planning over emergency response. Mitigation focus: Inventory externally reachable Windows Tomcat servers and confirm exact Tomcat versions.; If Tomcat 4.0.3 is found, review Apache Tomcat 4 security guidance.; Upgrade, replace, or retire affected deployments according to vendor guidance..
