How to fix?

Upgrade Debian:12 python-bottle to version 0.12.6-1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream python-bottle package and not the python-bottle package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:12 relevant fixed versions and status.

Bottle 0.10.x before 0.10.12, 0.11.x before 0.11.7, and 0.12.x before 0.12.6 does not properly limit content types, which allows remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions via an accepted Content-Type followed by a ; (semi-colon) and a Content-Type that would not be accepted, as demonstrated in YouCompleteMe to execute arbitrary code.
