Does this matter?

High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (4.20%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.

Description

Apache Tomcat Native 1.2.0 to 1.2.16 and 1.1.23 to 1.1.34 has a flaw that does not properly check OCSP pre-produced responses, which are lists (multiple entries) of certificate statuses. Subsequently, revoked client certificates may not be properly identified, allowing for users to authenticate with revoked certificates to connections that require mutual TLS. Users not using OCSP checks are not affected by this vulnerability.
