NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream jetty9 package and not the jetty9 package as distributed by Ubuntu.

Jetty through 9.4.x is prone to a timing channel in util/security/Password.java, which makes it easier for remote attackers to obtain access by observing elapsed times before rejection of incorrect passwords.
