Modify the HTTP/2 connector not to sent small updates for stream flow
control windows to the user agent as, depending on how the user agent is
written, this may trigger small writes from the user agent that in turn
trigger the overhead protection. Small updates for stream flow control
windows are now combined with subsequent flow control window updates for
that stream to ensure that all stream flow control window updates sent
from Tomcat are larger than overheadWindowUpdateThreshold.
(markt)
Add additional debug logging to track the current state of the HTTP/2
overhead count that Tomcat uses to detect and close potentially
malicious connections. (markt)
Many HTTP/2 requests from browsers will trigger one overhead frame and
one non-overhead frame. Change the overhead calculation so that a
non-overhead frame reduces the current overhead count by 2 rather than
1. This means that, over time, the overhead count for a well-behaved
connection will trend downwards. (markt)
Change the initial HTTP/2 overhead count from -10 to
-10 * overheadCountFactor. This means that, regardless of
the value chosen for overheadCountFactor, when a connection
opens 10 overhead frames in a row will be required to trigger the
overhead protection. (markt)
Increase the default overheadCountFactor from
1 to 10 and change the reduction in overhead
count for a non-overhead frame from -2 to -20.
This allows for a larger range (0-20) to be used for
overheadCountFactor providing for finer-grained control.

Let the RemoteCIDRValve inherit from

Add peerAddress to coyote request, which contains
the IP address of the direct connection peer. If a reverse proxy
sits in front of Tomcat and the protocol used is AJP or HTTP
in combination with the RemoteIp(Valve|Filter),
the peer address might differ from the remoteAddress.
The latter then contains the address of the client in front of the
reverse proxy, not the address of the proxy itself.
Support for the peer address has been added to the
RemoteAddrValve and RemoteCIDRValve with the new attribute
usePeerAddress. This can be used to restrict access
to Tomcat based on the reverse proxy IP address, which is especially
useful to harden access to AJP connectors. The peer address can also
be logged in the access log using the new %{peer}a
syntax. (rjung)
