CVE-2013-2051
The Tomcat 6 DIGEST authentication functionality as used in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 allows remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions by performing a replay attack after a nonce becomes stale.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (2.13%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
