      It was found that when an AJP message with a request body was received, an unsolicited AJP message containing the first part or the entire request body was sent to the web server under certain circumstances. This injected message could be processed as a new request which would permit an attacker to gain full control over the AJP message and bypass authentication, and lead to information disclosure. With this update, such message injections no longer take place.
