How can I prevent the use of the TRACK HTTP method on Tomcat 8?

edit

To prevent the use of the TRACK HTTP method on Tomcat 8, you can follow these steps:

1. Open the server.xml configuration file located in the conf folder of Tomcat's installation directory.

2. Locate the <Connector> element that corresponds to the port you want to configure. For example:

<Connector port="8080" protocol="HTTP/1.1"
           connectionTimeout="20000"
           redirectPort="8443" />

1. Add the allowTrace="false" attribute to the <Connector> element, like this:

<Connector port="8080" protocol="HTTP/1.1"
           connectionTimeout="20000"
           redirectPort="8443"
           allowTrace="false" />

1. Save the configuration file and restart Tomcat for the changes to take effect.

With this configuration, Tomcat will reject any incoming requests that use the TRACK HTTP method, returning a 405 Method Not Allowed response.
