CVE-2026-59083 is an improper handling of URL encoding vulnerability in Apache Tomcat's RewriteValve component. Incorrect decoding of hex-encoded characters during URI rewriting can cause rewritten requests to be interpreted differently than intended, which may allow security constraints to be bypassed in affected configurations. The issue affects Apache Tomcat 11.0.0-M1 through 11.0.23, 10.1.0-M1 through 10.1.56, 9.0.0.M1 through 9.0.119, and 8.5.0 through 8.5.100. Other end-of-support versions may also be affected.
