"The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-202210-12 (Lighttpd: Denial of Service)

  - In lighttpd 1.4.65, mod_wstunnel does not initialize a handler function pointer if an invalid HTTP request
    (websocket handshake) is received. It leads to null pointer dereference which crashes the server. It could
    be used by an external attacker to cause denial of service condition. (CVE-2022-37797)

  - A resource leak in gw_backend.c in lighttpd 1.4.56 through 1.4.66 could lead to a denial of service
    (connection-slot exhaustion) after a large amount of anomalous TCP behavior by clients. It is related to
    RDHUP mishandling in certain HTTP/1.1 chunked situations. Use of mod_fastcgi is, for example, affected.
    This is fixed in 1.4.67. (CVE-2022-41556)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
