CVE-2008-4308
The doRead method in Apache Tomcat 4.1.32 through 4.1.34 and 5.5.10 through 5.5.20 does not return a -1 to indicate when a certain error condition has occurred, which can cause Tomcat to send POST content from one request to a different request.

Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (3.91%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
