The vulnerability involved a SecurityManager bypass via the JspRuntimeLibrary.introspecthelper() method that used AccessController.doPrivileged() to execute reflection operations with elevated privileges. The fix removed this privileged execution wrapper. This fix was already applied by Apache Tomcat in August 2016 (commit a6b1ebc246 by Mark Thomas) and was included in the upstream Tomcat 9.0.90 release that TuxCare onboarded. The target code contains no privileged execution code, no AccessController/PrivilegedAction imports, and the introspecthelper() method runs with the caller's permissions only.\n\nAdvisory cross-check (dlmn): outside the affected ranges of GitHub (>= 9.0.0.M1, < 9.0.0.M10; >= 8.5.0, < 8.5.5; >= 8.0.0RC1, < 8.0.37; >= 7.0.0, < 7.0.72; >= 9.0.0.M1, < 9.0.0.M10; >= 8.5.0, < 8.5.5; >= 8.0.0RC1, < 8.0.37; >= 7.0.0, < 7.0.72; >= 6.0.0, < 6.0.47), NVD (>= 6.0.0, <= 6.0.45; >= 7.0.0, <= 7.0.70; >= 8.0, <= 8.0.36; >= 8.5.0, <= 8.5.4; = 9.0.0-milestone1; = 9.0.0-milestone2; = 9.0.0-milestone3; = 9.0.0-milestone4; = 9.0.0-milestone5; = 9.0.0-milestone6; = 9.0.0-milestone7; = 9.0.0-milestone8; = 9.0.0-milestone9), cve.org (>= 9.0.0.M1, <= 9.0.0.M9; >= 8.5.0, <= 8.5.4; >= 8.0.0.RC1, <= 8.0.36; >= 7.0.0, <= 7.0.70; >= 6.0.0, <= 6.0.45), Snyk (>= 7.0.0, < 7.0.72; >= 8, < 8.0.37; >= 8.5.0, < 8.5.5; >= 9-alpha, < 9.0.0.M10).",
