Echo: org.eclipse.jetty:jetty-server: security update to 12.0.35

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 463900

Description

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

- In Eclipse Jetty, for HTTP/1, HTTP/2 and HTTP/3 requests, there is no strict check that the request
authority (host and port) matches what provided in the Host header (if present). This was not enforced in
earlier HTTP RFC (for example, in RFC 2616), but it is in the latest RFC (9110 and 9112). This mismatch
can cause a number of problems that may be classified as vulnerabilities such as: * URI constructions (for
example, for redirects -- this is typical for login pages) * Virtual host selection * Reverse proxying *
Misleading logs * Etc. Given that the latest RFCs require that request authority and Host header must
match, Jetty should enforce this invariant. (CVE-2026-6790)

Solution

Update the org.eclipse.jetty:jetty-server library and its related packages to version 12.0.35 or later.
