How to fix?

Upgrade Debian:unstable trafficserver to version 7.1.4+ds-1 or higher.

NVD Description

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

When there are multiple ranges in a range request, Apache Traffic Server (ATS) will read the entire object from cache. This can cause performance problems with large objects in cache. This affects versions 6.0.0 to 6.2.2 and 7.0.0 to 7.1.3. To resolve this issue users running 6.x users should upgrade to 6.2.3 or later versions and 7.x users should upgrade to 7.1.4 or later versions.
