Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
Apache Tomcat versions 11.0.0-M1 through 11.0.9, 10.1.0-M1 through 10.1.43 and 9.0.0.M1 through 9.0.107 are vulnerable, affecting the tomcat-coyote and tomcat-embed-core packages. The source gives few details on how the attack is carried out, beyond that it is a "made you reset" attack, which is a type of HTTP/2 resource exhaustion. Upgrade to 11.0.10, 10.1.44 or 9.0.108, depending on the release line in use. The source does not list a workaround.
