- CVE-2011-0534

Bug Fix
- BZ#676922
- A bug in the "tomcat6" init script prevented additional Tomcat instances from starting. As well, running "service tomcat6 start" caused configuration options applied from "/etc/sysconfig/tomcat6" to be overwritten with those from "/etc/tomcat6/tomcat6.conf". With this update, multiple instances of Tomcat run as expected.
Users of Tomcat should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain backported patches to correct these issues. Tomcat must be restarted for this update to take effect.
