Critical
Reference: CVE-2018-8014
NVD Link: https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2018-8014
Title: Apache Tomcat Insecure Default Initialization of Resource Vulnerability
Overview:

The defaults settings for the CORS filter provided in Apache Tomcat 9.0.0.M1 to 9.0.8 8.5.0 to 8.5.31 8.0.0.RC1 to 8.0.52 7.0.41 to 7.0.88 are insecure and enable 39supportsCredentials39 for all origins. It is expected that users of the CORS filter will have configured it appropriately for their environment rather than using it in the default configuration. Therefore it is expected that most users will not be impacted by this issue.
