SCA: security update for org.eclipse.jetty:jetty-http (GHSA-qh8g-58pp-2wxh)

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 418140

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

 - Eclipse Jetty is a lightweight, highly scalable, Java-based web server and Servlet engine . It includes a
 utility class, HttpURI, for URI/URL parsing. The HttpURI class does insufficient validation on the
 authority segment of a URI. However the behaviour of HttpURI differs from the common browsers in how it
 handles a URI that would be considered invalid if fully validated against the RRC. Specifically HttpURI
 and the browser may differ on the value of the host extracted from an invalid URI and thus a combination
 of Jetty and a vulnerable browser may be vulnerable to a open redirect attack or to a SSRF attack if the
 URI is used after passing validation checks. (CVE-2024-6763)
