CVE-2017-5648

⚠️ A sneaky oversight in Apache Tomcat lets untrusted applications snoop on each other! It’s like letting a guest in your hotel peek into other rooms without permission. 🏨 Think of it as a poorly designed hotel where guests can wander into rooms that aren’t theirs. If an untrusted application is given access, it could potentially peek at or even mess with another application's data, compromising privacy and security. An untrusted application could access and modify information from other web applications running on the same server, leading to data leaks or unauthorized access. This could result in sensitive information being exposed or altered, which is absolutely devastating for web security! ⚡
