Apache Under the Lens: Tomcat’s Partial PUT and Camel’s Header Hijack


In March 2025, Apache disclosed CVE-2025-24813, a vulnerability impacting Apache Tomcat. This is a widely used platform that allows Apache web servers to run Java-based web applications.

The flaw allows remote code execution, affecting Apache Tomcat versions 9.0.0.M1 to 9.0.98, 10.1.0-M1 to 10.1.34 and 11.0.0-M1 to 11.0.2. The same month, Apache revealed two additional vulnerabilities in Apache Camel, a message routing middleware framework. These vulnerabilities are CVE-2025-27636 and CVE-2025-29891, two flaws that allow remote code execution, affecting Apache Camel versions 4.10.0 to 4.10.1, 4.8.0 to 4.8.4 and 3.10.0 to 3.22.3. These vulnerabilities are significant because millions of developers rely on the platform provided by the Apache Foundation.
