How to fix?

Upgrade SLES:15.5 jetty-server to version 9.4.58-150200.3.40.1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream jetty-server package and not the jetty-server package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:15.5 relevant fixed versions and status.

In Eclipse Jetty, the class JASPIAuthenticator initiates the authentication checks, which set two ThreadLocal variable.

Upon returning from the initial checks, there are conditions that cause an early return from the JASPIAuthenticator code without clearing those ThreadLocals.

A subsequent request using the same thread inherits the ThreadLocal values, leading to a broken access control and privilege escalation.
