Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

Eclipse Jetty's jetty-server is vulnerable to remote denial of service in versions 12.0.0 through 12.0.8, 11.0.0 through 11.0.23, 10.0.0 through 10.0.23, and 9.3.12 through 9.4.55. By repeatedly sending crafted requests, an unauthenticated remote attacker can exhaust server memory and cause OutOfMemory errors. Upgrade to 12.0.9, 11.0.24, 10.0.24, or 9.4.56. If upgrading is not possible, stop using ThreadLimitHandler or use QoSHandler to limit resource use.
