Rule version TCAT-AS-001700 · STIG v3 · 2026-08-26

Discussion

Deploying applications to Tomcat requires a Tomcat user account that is in the "manager-script" role. Any user accounts in a Tomcat management role must be approved by the ISSO.

Check

Review the Tomcat servers System Security Plan/server documentation.

Ensure that user accounts and roles with access to Tomcat management features such as the "manager-script" role are documented and approved by the ISSO.

If the ISSO has not approved of documented roles and users who have management rights to the Tomcat server, this is a finding.

Fix

Document the users and the roles that have been defined for use with the Tomcat server.

Ensure that all users and roles with access to Tomcat management features and capabilities are approved by the ISSO.
