Complete the implementation of the Servlet 4.0 specification. (markt)

Catalina

Before generating an error page in the ErrorReportValve, check to see if I/O is still permitted for the associated connection before generating the error page so that the page generation can be skipped if the page is never going to be sent. (markt)
61189: Add the ability to set environment variables for individual CGI scripts. Based on a patch by jm009. (markt)

Coyote

The minimum required Tomcat Native version has been increased to 1.2.14. This version includes a new API needed for correct client certificate support when using a Java connector with OpenSSL TLS implementation and support for the SSL_CONF OpenSSL API. (rjung)
Add support for the OpenSSL SSL_CONF API when using TLS with OpenSSL implementation. It can be used by adding OpenSSLConf elements underneath SSLHostConfig. The new element contains a list of OpenSSLConfCmd elements, each with the attributes name and value. (rjung)
When using a Java connector in combination with the OpenSSL TLS implementation, do not configure each SSL connection object via the OpenSSLEngine. For OpenSSL the SSL object inherits its settings from the SSL_CTX which we have already configured. (rjung)
When using JSSE TLS configuration with the OpenSSL implementation and client certificates: include client CA subjects in the TLS handshake so that the client can choose an appropriate client certificate to present. (rjung)
If an invalid option is specified for the certificateVerification attribute of an SSLHostConfig element, treat it as required which is the most secure / restrictive option in addition to reporting the configuration error. (markt)
Improve the handling of client disconnections during the TLS renegotiation handshake. (markt)
Prevent exceptions being thrown during normal shutdown of NIO connections. This enables TLS connections to close cleanly. (markt)
Fix possible race condition when setting IO listeners on an upgraded connection. (remm)

48655: Enable Tomcat to shutdown cleanly when using sendfile, the APR/native connector and a multi-part download is in progress. (markt)
58244: Handle the case when OpenSSL resumes a TLS session using a ticket and the full client certificate chain is not available. In this case the client certificate without the chain will be presented to the application. (markt)
Improve the warning message when JSSE and OpenSSL configuration styles are mixed on the same SSLHostConfig. (markt)
61415: Fix TLS renegotiation with OpenSSL based connections and session caching. (markt)
Delay checking that the configured attributes for an SSLHostConfig instance are consistent with the configured SSL implementation until Connector start to avoid incorrect warnings when the SSL implementation changes during initialisation. (markt)
61450: Fix default key alias algorithm. (remm)
61451: Correct a regression in the fix to enable the use of Java key stores that contained multiple keys that did not all have the same password. The regression broke support for any key store that did not store keys in PKCS #8 format such as hardware key stores and Windows key stores. (markt)

WebSocket

60523: Reduce the number of packets used to send WebSocket messages by not flushing between the header and the payload when the two are written together. (markt)
61491: When using the permessage-deflate extension, correctly handle the sending of empty messages after non-empty messages to avoid the IllegalArgumentException. (markt)

Add LoadBalancerDrainingValve, a Valve designed to reduce the amount of time required for a node to drain its authenticated users. (schultz)
Do not log a warning when a null session is returned for an OpenSSL based TLS session since this is expected when session tickets are enabled. (markt)
When the access log valve logs a TLS related request attribute and the NIO2 connector is used with OpenSSL, ensure that the TLS attributes are available to the access log valve when the connection is closing. (markt)
60461: Sync SSL session access for the APR connector. (remm)
61224: Make the GlobalRequestProcessor MBean attributes read-only. Patch provided by Alexis Hassler. (markt)

Jasper

49176: When generating JSP runtime error messages that quote the relevant JSP source code, switch from using the results of the JSP page parsing process to using the JSR 045 source map data to identify the correct part of the JSP source from the stack trace. This significantly reduces the memory footprint of Jasper in development mode, provides a small performance improvement for error page generation and enables source quotes to continue to be provided after a Tomcat restart. (markt)

Web applications

Remove references to the Loader attribute searchExternalFirst from the documentation since the attribute is no longer supported. (markt)

Tribes

General

Allow to exclude JUnit test classes using the build property test.exclude and document the property in BUILDING.txt. (rjung)

Catalina

Review those places where Tomcat re-encodes a URI or URI component and ensure that that correct encoding (path differs from query string) is applied and that the encoding is applied consistently. (markt)
Avoid a NullPointerException when reading attributes for a initialised HTTP connector where TLS is enabled. (markt)
Always quote the hostName of an SSLHostConfig element when using it as part of the JMX object name to avoid errors that prevent the associated TLS connector from starting if a wild card hostName is configured (because * is a reserved character for JMX object names). (markt)
Update the default URIEncoding for a Connector to UTF-8 as required by the Servlet 4.0 specification. (markt)
Switch to using Charset rather than String to store encoding settings (including for configuration and for the Content-Type header) to reduce the number of places the associated Charset needs to be looked up. (markt)
Use a more reliable mechanism for the DefaultServlet when determining if the current request is for custom error page or not. (markt)
Ensure that when the Default or WebDAV servlets process an error dispatch that the error resource is processed via the doGet() method irrespective of the method used for the original request that triggered the error. (markt)
If a static custom error page is specified that does not exist or cannot be read, ensure that the intended error status is returned rather than a 404 or 403. (markt)
When the WebDAV servlet is configured and an error dispatch is made to a custom error page located below WEB-INF, ensure that the target error page is displayed rather than a 404 response. (markt)

Fix a timing issue on session close that could result in an exception being thrown for an incomplete message even through the message was completed. (markt)
Correctly handle compression of partial messages when the final message fragment has a zero length payload. (markt)
59119: Correct read logic for WebSocket client when using secure connections. (markt)
59134: Correct client connect logic for secure connections made through a proxy. (markt)

Catalina

Refactor creation of MapperListener to ensure that the Mapper used is the Mapper associated with the Service for which the listener was created. (markt)
Move the functionality that provides redirects for context roots and directories where a trailing / is added from the Mapper to the DefaultServlet. This enables such requests to be processed by any configured Valves and Filters before the redirect is made. This behaviour is configurable via the mapperContextRootRedirectEnabled and mapperDirectoryRedirectEnabled attributes of the Context which may be used to restore the previous behaviour. (markt)
Refactor Service.getContainer() to return an Engine rather than a Container. (markt)
34319: Only load those keys in StoreBase.processExpire from JDBCStore, that are old enough, to be expired. Based on a patch by Tom Anderson. (fschumacher)
56917: As per RFC7231 (HTTP/1.1), allow HTTP/1.1 and later redirects to use relative URIs. This is controlled by a new attribute useRelativeRedirects on the Context and defaults to true. (markt)
58629: Allow an embedded Tomcat instance to start when the Service has no Engine configured. (markt)
Correctly notify the MapperListener associated with a Service if the Engine for that Service is changed. (markt)
Make a web application's CredentialHandler available through a context attribute. This allows a web application to use the same algorithm for validating or generating new stored credentials from cleartext ones. (schultz)
58635: Enable break points to be set within agent code when running Tomcat with a Java agent. Based on a patch by Huxing Zhang. (markt)
Fixed potential NPE in HostConfig while deploying an application. Issue reported by coverity scan. (violetagg)
58655: Fix an IllegalStateException when calling HttpServletResponse.sendRedirect() with the RemoteIpFilter. This was caused by trying to correctly generate the absolute URI for the redirect. With the fix for 56917, redirects may now be relative making the sendRedirect() implementation for the RemoteIpFilter much simpler. This also addresses issues where the redirect may not have behaved as expected when redirecting from http to https to from https to http. (markt)
58657: Exceptions in a Servlet 3.1 ReadListener or WriteListener do not need to be immediately fatal to the connection. Allow an error response to be written. (markt)
Correct implementation of validateClientProvidedNewSessionId so client provided session IDs may be rejected if validation is enabled. (markt)
58701: Reset the instanceInitialized field in StandardWrapper when unloading a Servlet so that a new instance may be correctly initialized. (markt)
Add a new flag aprPreferred to the Apr listener. if set to false, when using the connector defaults, it will use NIO + OpenSSL if tomcat-native is available, rather than the APR connector. (remm)
Add path parameter handling to HttpServletRequest.getContextPath(). This is a follow-up to the fix for 57215. (markt)
58692: Make StandardJarScanner more robust. Log a warning if a class path entry cannot be scanned rather than triggering the failure of the web application. Includes a test case written by Derek Abdine. (markt)
58702: Ensure an access log entry is generated if the client aborts the connection. (markt)
Fixed various issues reported by Findbugs. (violetagg)
58735: Add support for the X-XSS-Protection header to the HttpHeaderSecurityFilter. Patch provided by Jacopo Cappellato. (markt)
Add the StatusManagerServlet to the list of Servlets that can only be loaded by privileged applications. (markt)
Simplify code and fix messages in org.apache.catalina.core.DefaultInstanceManager class. (kkolinko)
58751: Correctly handle the case where an AsyncListener dispatches to a Servlet on an asynchronous timeout and the Servlet uses sendError() to trigger an error page. Includes a test case based on code provided by Andy Wilkinson.(markt)
Ensure that the proper file encoding if specified will be used when a readme file is served by DefaultServlet. (violetagg)
Fix declaration of localPort attribute of Connector MBean: it is read-only. (kkolinko)
58766: Make skipping non-class files during annotation scanning faster by checking the file name first. Improve debug logging. (kkolinko)
58836: Correctly merge query string parameters when processing a forwarded request where the target includes a query string that contains a parameter with no value. (markt/kkolinko)
Make sure that shared Digester is reset in an unlikely error case in HostConfig.deployWAR(). (kkolinko)
Extend the feature available in the cluster session manager implementations that enables session attribute replication to be filtered based on attribute name to all session manager implementations. Note that configuration attribute name has changed from sessionAttributeFilter to sessionAttributeNameFilter. Apply the filter on load as well as unload to ensure that configuration changes made while the web application is stopped are applied to any persisted data. (markt)
Extend the session attribute filtering options to include filtering based on the implementation class of the value and optional WARN level logging if an attribute is filtered. These options are available for all of the Manager implementations that ship with Tomcat. When a SecurityManager is used filtering will be enabled by default. (markt)
Remove distributable and maxInactiveInterval from the Manager interface because the attributes are never used. The equivalent attributes from the Context always take precedence. (markt)
58867: Improve checking on Host start for WAR files that have been modified while Tomcat has stopped and re-expand them if unpackWARs is true. (markt)
58900: Correctly undeploy symlinked resources and prevent an infinite cycle of deploy / undeploy. (markt)

Coyote

58621: The certificate chain cannot be set using the main certificate attribute, so restore the certificate chain property. (remm)
Allow a new SSL config type where a connector can use either JSSE or OpenSSL. Both could be allowed, but it would likely create support issues. This type is used by the OpenSSL implementation for NIOx. (remm)
Improve upgrade context classloader handling by using Context.bind and unbind. (remm)
Improve OpenSSL keystore/truststore configuration by using the code from the JSSE implementation. (remm, jfclere)
Fix a potential loop when a client drops the connection unexpectedly. (markt)
OpenSSL renegotiation support for client certificate authentication. (remm)
Fix NIO connector renegotiation. (remm)
58659: Fix a potential deadlock during HTTP/2 processing when the connection window size is limited. (markt)

Add SSL engine for JSSE backed by OpenSSL. Includes ALPN support. Based on code contributed by Numa de Montmollin and derived from code developed by Twitter and Netty. (remm)
RFC 7230 states that clients should ignore reason phrases in HTTP/1.1 response messages. Since the reason phrase is optional, Tomcat no longer sends it. As a result the system property org.apache.coyote.USE_CUSTOM_STATUS_MSG_IN_HEADER is no longer used and has been removed. (markt)
The minimum required Tomcat Native version has been increased to 1.2.2. The 1.2.x branch includes ALPN and SNI support which are required for HTTP/2. (markt)
Add support for HTTP/2 including server push. (markt)

Tribes

Clarify the handling of Copy message and Copy nodes. (kfujino)
