Package : tomcat9
CVE ID : CVE-2023-44487
Debian Bug : 1053820

The patch to address CVE-2023-44487 (Rapid Reset Attack) was incomplete and
caused a regression when using asynchronous I/O (the default for NIO and NIO2).
DATA frames must be included when calculating the HTTP/2 overhead count to
ensure that connections are not prematurely terminated.

For the oldstable distribution (bullseye), this problem has been fixed
in version 9.0.43-2~deb11u8.

We recommend that you upgrade your tomcat9 packages.
