<h2>Security updates</h2>
<h3>Apache TomEE</h3>
<p>Please note that, except in rare circumstances, binary patches are not produced for individual vulnerabilities.
To obtain the binary fix for a particular vulnerability you should upgrade to an Apache TomEE version where that
vulnerability has been fixed.</p>
<p>Source patches, usually in the form of references to SVN commits, may be provided in either in a vulnerability
announcement and/or the vulnerability details listed on these pages. These source patches may be used by users
wishing to build their own local version of TomEE with just that security patch rather than upgrade.</p>
<p>Lists of security problems fixed in released versions of Apache TomEE are available:</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="tomee.html">Apache TomEE 1.5 Security Vulnerabilities</a></li>
<li><a href="tomee.html">Apache TomEE 1.6 Security Vulnerabilities</a></li>
<li><a href="tomee.html">Apache TomEE 1.7 Security Vulnerabilities</a></li>
</ul>
<h2>Reporting New Security Problems with Apache TomEE</h2>
<p>The Apache Software Foundation takes a very active stance in eliminating security problems and denial of service
attacks against Apache projects.</p>
<p>We strongly encourage folks to report such problems to the <a href="http://www.apache.org/security">private security mailing list first</a>,
before disclosing them in a public forum.</p>
<p>Please note that the security mailing list should only be used for reporting undisclosed security
vulnerabilities in Apache projects and managing the process of fixing such vulnerabilities.
We cannot accept regular bug reports or other queries at this address. All mail sent to this address that
does not relate to an undisclosed security problem will be ignored.</p>
<p>If you need to report a bug that isn't an undisclosed security vulnerability,
please use the <a href="https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TOMEE">bug reporting system</a>.</p>
<p>Questions about:</p>
<ul>
<li>how to configure TomEE securely</li>
<li>if a vulnerability applies to your particular application</li>
<li>obtaining further information on a published vulnerability</li>
<li>availability of patches and/or new releases</li>
</ul>
<p>should be addressed to the <a href="support.html">users mailing list</a>.</p>
<p>The private security mailing address is: security (at) apache (dot) org</p>
<p>Note that all networked servers are subject to denial of service attacks, and we cannot promise magic workarounds
to generic problems (such as a client streaming lots of data to your server, or re-requesting the same URL repeatedly).
In general our philosophy is to avoid any attacks which can cause the server to consume resources in a
non-linear relationship to the size of inputs.</p>
<h2>Third-party projects</h2>
<p>Apache is built with the following components. Please see the security advisories information for each
component for more information on the security vulnerabilities and issues that may affect that component.</p>
<ul>
<li>Apache Tomcat 7.x: <a href="http://tomcat.apache.org/security-7.html">Tomcat 7 security advisories</a></li>
<li>Apache OpenJPA</li>
<li>Apache CXF: <a href="http://cxf.apache.org/security-advisories.html">CXF Security Advisories</a></li>
<li>Apache OpenWebBeans</li>
<li>Apache MyFaces</li>
<li>Apache Bean Validation</li>
</ul>
<p>By default any regular TomEE releases uses latest sub project releases, so that we can follow all security fixes
as much as possible.</p>
<h2>Apache TomEE versioning details</h2>
<p>As security is a key concern in many companies, TomEE team also considers to deliver specific security fixes for those
external projects being fixed. For instance, if Tomcat fixes a security issue in Tomcat x.y.z, used in TomEE a.b.c,
we will consider packaging a new security update release using the new Tomcat release.</p>
<p>In order to achieve a smoothly migration patch between a TomEE version and a security update, the TomEE team has decided
to adopt the following versioning <em>major</em>.<em>minor</em>.<em>patch</em>[.<em>security update</em>]</p>
<ul>
<li>major ([0-9]+): it refers mainly to the Java EE version we implement. 1.x for Java EE 6 for example.</li>
<li>minor ([0-9]+): contains features, bugfixes and security fixes (internal or third-party)</li>
<li>patch ([0-9]+): only bugfixes applied</li>
<li>security update (SEC[0-9]+)?: security update suffix that makes it possible to easily differentiate security fixes and
to upgrade with a minimal of changes, hence impacts.</li>
</ul>
<p>The last security update part is optional, and applies when a sub project has been released and was under an
advisory. The TomEE team will just grab the related tag and update the dependency. The release checks are then
smaller and the community can deliver a fixed version faster.</p>

<h3>Secunia</h3>
<p>Secunia is an international IT security company specialising in vulnerability management based in Copenhagen, Denmark.</p>
<p>There is an <a href="http://secunia.com/advisories/vendor/8/">Apache Software Foundation vendor</a> declared so you can follow
all vulnerabilities related to Apache products. Of course, a Apache TomEE product
is also available so you can search for know advisories.</p>
