Synopsis

Jetty 11.0.0 < 11.0.0.beta3 Information Disclosure

Description

This may permit an attacker to inject data into the body of the subsequent request Note that the scanner has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to Jetty version 11.0.0.beta3 or later.
