How to fix?

Upgrade Ubuntu:22.10 apache2 to version 2.4.54-2ubuntu1.1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream apache2 package and not the apache2 package as distributed by Ubuntu. See How to fix? for Ubuntu:22.10 relevant fixed versions and status.

Prior to Apache HTTP Server 2.4.55, a malicious backend can cause the response headers to be truncated early, resulting in some headers being incorporated into the response body. If the later headers have any security purpose, they will not be interpreted by the client.
