SCA: security update for org.eclipse.jetty:jetty-server (GHSA-6x9x-8qw9-9pp6)

critical Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 423385

Description

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

 - In Eclipse Jetty Server, versions 9.2.x and older, 9.3.x (all non HTTP/1.x configurations), and 9.4.x (all
 HTTP/1.x configurations), when presented with two content-lengths headers, Jetty ignored the second. When
 presented with a content-length and a chunked encoding header, the content-length was ignored (as per RFC
 2616). If an intermediary decided on the shorter length, but still passed on the longer body, then body
 content could be interpreted by Jetty as a pipelined request. If the intermediary was imposing
 authorization, the fake pipelined request would bypass that authorization. (CVE-2017-7658)
