Description

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

- If an HTTP/2 client connecting to Apache Tomcat 10.0.0-M1 to 10.0.0-M7, 9.0.0.M1 to 9.0.37 or 8.5.0 to
8.5.57 exceeded the agreed maximum number of concurrent streams for a connection (in violation of the
