Description:	Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the 'tomcat6' package(s) announced via the referenced advisory. Vulnerability Insight: Apache Tomcat is a servlet container for the Java Servlet and JavaServer Pages (JSP) technologies.

(CVE-2014-7810) This update also fixes the following bug: * Previously, using a New I/O (NIO) connector in the Apache Tomcat 6 servlet resulted in a large memory leak. An upstream patch has been applied to fix this bug, and the memory leak no longer occurs. (BZ#1301646) All Tomcat 6 users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which contain backported patches to correct these issues. Tomcat must be restarted for this update to take effect. Affected Software/OS: tomcat6 on Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server (v. 6), Red Hat Enterprise Linux Workstation (v. 6) Solution: Please Install the Updated Packages.
