Upgrade org.eclipse.jetty:jetty-server
to version 9.3.24.v20180605, 9.4.11.v20180605 or higher.
Overview
org.eclipse.jetty:jetty-server is a lightweight highly scalable java based web server and servlet engine.
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Web Cache Poisoning. An HTTP/1
style request line (i.e. method space URI space version) that declares a version of HTTP/0.9
was accepted and treated as a 0.9 request. If deployed behind an intermediary that also accepted and passed through the 0.9 version, the response sent could be interpreted by the intermediary as HTTP/1
headers. This could be used to poison the cache if the server allowed the origin client to generate arbitrary content in the response.
