    Package        : tinyproxy     Version        : 1.10.0-5+deb11u1     CVE ID         : CVE-2022-40468 CVE-2023-49606


    Two issues have been found in tinyproxy, a lightweight, non-caching,     optionally anonymizing HTTP proxy.
    They are related to an use after free in header parsing of GTTP     connections and a potential leak of left-over heap data.



    For Debian 11 bullseye, these problems have been fixed in version     1.10.0-5+deb11u1.

    We recommend that you upgrade your tinyproxy packages.
