For added convenience Progress Application Server (PAS) for OpenEdge includes Apache Tomcat AJP connector. A serious vulnerability has recently been discovered and published by the security community about this third-party component: • NVD - CVE-2020-1938 In order to address this vulnerability Apache Tomcat project made a breaking change that requires customers to regenerate their instances and reconfigure the AJP connector. The Apache Tomcat community is also discussing deprecating the AJP in future versions of Tomcat due to the other options available today to connect front end Web Servers to Tomcat. In determining how best to address this issue for our customers, it is important for us to understand how many customers are using AJP today and with what other components. If you are using AJP, please respond to this and provide: 1. What third party product you are using it with 2. If you have evaluated any alternatives to AJP13 and the results of that evaluation. 3. If you use AJP13 and have not considered alternatives, would you now be inclined to do so given its possible deprecation? If you prefer to talk to us directly please let us know as well and we will try to reach you separately.
