CVE-2022-45143

Apache Tomcat improperly escapes input from JsonErrorReportValve

Description

The `JsonErrorReportValve` in Apache Tomcat 8.5.83, 9.0.40 to 9.0.68 and 10.1.0-M1 to 10.1.1 does not escape the `type`, `message` or `description` values. In some circumstances these are constructed from user provided data and it was therefore possible for users to supply values that invalidated or manipulated the JSON output.
