How to fix?

Upgrade Centos:9 tomcat-jsp-2.3-api to version 1:9.0.62-11.el9_2.3 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream tomcat-jsp-2.3-api package and not the tomcat-jsp-2.3-api package as distributed by Centos. See How to fix? for Centos:9 relevant fixed versions and status.

The HTTP/2 protocol allows a denial of service (server resource consumption) because request cancellation can reset many streams quickly, as exploited in the wild in August through October 2023.
