Apache Tomcat 10.1.11
Catalina:
Add: Add org.apache.catalina.core.ContextNamingInfoListener, a listener which creates context naming information environment entries.
Add: Add org.apache.catalina.core.PropertiesRoleMappingListener, a listener which populates the context's role mapping from a properties file.
Fix: Fix an edge case where intra-web application symlinks would be followed if the web applications were deliberately crafted to allow it even when allowLinking was set to false.
Update: Add utlity config file resource lookup on Context to allow looking up resources from the webapp (prefixed with webapp:) and make the resource lookup API more visible.
Fix: Fix potential database connection leaks in DataSourceUserDatabase identified by Coverity Scan.
Fix: Make parsing of ExtendedAccessLogValve patterns more robust.
Coyote:
Fix: 66627: Restore the documented behaviour of MessageBytes.getType() that it returns the type of the original content rather than reflecting the most recent conversion.
Fix: 66635: Correct certificate logging on start-up so it differentiates between keystore based keys/certificates and PEM file based keys/certificates and logs the relevant information for each.
Fix: Refactor blocking reads and writes for the NIO connector to remove code paths that could allow a notification from the Poller to be missed resuting in a timeout rather than the expected read or write.
Fix: Refactor waiting for an HTTP/2 stream or connection window update to handle spurious wake-ups during the wait.
WebSocket:
Fix: Improve handling of error conditions for the WebSocket server, particularly during Tomcat shutdown.
Fix: Correct a regression in the fix for 66574 that meant the WebSocket session could return false for onOpen() before the onClose() event had been completed.
Web Applications:
Add: Documentation. Expand the security guidance to cover the embedded use case and add notes on the uses made of the java.io.tmpdir system property.
Fix: 66662: Documentation. Fix a typo in the name of the algorithms attribute in the configuration section for the Digest authentication valve. Pull request #629 provided by gohilmca.

Sonatype Nexus Repository 3.57.0
Bug Fixes:
NEXUS-24088:You can now properly remove an S3 blob store from a group even when it references an S3 bucket that is no longer accessible; such blob stores no longer cause UI errors.
NEXUS-24726: You can now search for components with an empty group or npm.scope.
NEXUS-27710: Fixed errors that were sporadically preventing startup in some cases due to a corrupted org.apache.karaf.features.cfg file.
NEXUS-29638: Downloading a pom.xml that uses unicode characters no longer fails due to calling getBytes
without using UTF8.
NEXUS-31461: Searching for Maven versions now returns versions in alpha-numeric order as expected.
NEXUS-31492: Raw proxy URL no longer encodes special characters for outbound requests.
NEXUS-35917: The Repair - Reconcile component database from blob store task with only Integrity Check option selected now removes stale objects from S3 blob stores as expected.
NEXUS-36599: Browse privileges are no longer required to execute a NuGet search; only Read is needed.
NEXUS-38662: Deleting large repositories is no longer impeded by errors where Sonatype Nexus Repository looks for repository_blobstore
in the component database.
NEXUS-38791: Running a search for Maven assets in an HA environment now returns the versions in descending order.
NEXUS-3885: npm exports no longer skip assets with an application/x-tgz
content type.
NEXUS-39169: The permissions required for the search API are now consistent between HA and non-HA environments. Searching a group repository from the API only requires the user to have read permissions for the group.
