Tomcat 9 vulnerabilities

Asked by james Hart

Our Rapid7 scans have picked up a whole bunch of Tomcat9 vulnerabilities on Focal that haven't yet been addressed by Ubuntu (according to entries on the corresponding https://ubuntu.com/security page):

Version on ubuntu repository: 9.0.31-1ubuntu0.1

Vulenerability versions affected Status (as per the
apache-tomcat-cve-2021-30640 < 9.0.46 Needs triage
apache-tomcat-cve-2021-33037 < 9.0.47 Needs triage
apache-tomcat-cve-2021-25122 < 9.0.42 Needs triage
apache-tomcat-cve-2020-17527 < 9.0.40 Needed
apache-tomcat-cve-2021-25329 < 9.0.42 Needs triage
apache-tomcat-cve-2021-24122 < 9.0.40 Needs triage

Should we be installing Tomcat directly from Apache, and independently of apt to ensure these vulnerabilities are countered, or can we expect a release soon of a patched version of Tomcat9?

Hope you can help.
