Subject: Tomcat 5.0.14: remote DoS

During a nessus-scan with DoS-attacks enabled I was able to bring down the 
Tomcat server (version 5.0.14 running on Windows 2003). After reading the 
report and doing some research I learned this should be a vulnerability prior 
to version 4.1.10.

Vulnerability:
http://cert.uni-stuttgart.de/archive/vulnwatch/2002/10/msg00020.html

As I am short of time I haven't been able to test it on other plattforms and 
versions. Hopefully someone could look into the matter.

Regards
