Tomcat default ROOT web application must be removed.
Description
Discussion Text
The default ROOT web application includes the version of Tomcat that is being used, links to Tomcat documentation, examples, FAQs, and mailing lists. The default ROOT web application must be removed from a publicly accessible Tomcat instance and a more appropriate default page shown to users. It is acceptable to replace the contents of default ROOT with a new default web application.
WARNING: Removing the ROOT folder without replacing the content with valid web based content will result in an error page being displayed to the browser when the browser lands on the default page.
