   Summary
   Under certain circumstances, the included JRun 3.0 http server may
   improperly handle trailing path-specifying characters and a
   deliberately malformed URI will return a JSP page's source code.
   
   Issue
   Under certain circumstances, submitting a malformed URI to JRun 3.0
   will return the JSP page's source code instead of the interpreted
   result.
   
   For instance, if a JSP page's proper URI is
   http://localhost/index.jsp, the malformed URI required to expose the
   source code could be, http://localhost/index.jsp/.
   
   Affected Software Versions
     * JRun 2.3.x (all editions)
     * JRun 3.0 (all editions)
