## Machine-written summary

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

> Daptin versions up to and including 0.12.15 are vulnerable to denial of service through the Accept-Language header. An unauthenticated attacker who can reach the HTTP listener can send one request with a crafted header that makes the server use about 9 to 27 seconds of CPU per 256 KiB. No fixed version is listed.

## Check whether this affects you

A Match means an installed version is in the affected range above. Most don’t affect the app; agentprime hasn’t analysed this one yet.

- With the agentprime MCP server (<https://api.agentprime.io/mcp>), ask your agent to check the project: `check_lockfile` sends a lockfile, `check_packages` a list of installed packages, and both return the Matches and the upgrades that clear them. `get_advisory` returns this record. Setup: <https://agentprime.io/mcp.md>
- In a browser: <https://agentprime.io/check/> reads your lockfile in the browser, never uploading it.
- Whether it touches your code, with file and line: the Claude Code plugin, <https://agentprime.io/plugin.md>
- As JSON: <https://api.agentprime.io/v1/advisories/GHSA-rhj7-vh3v-mcq6>, or `POST https://api.agentprime.io/v1/match` with your packages (<https://agentprime.io/api.md>)
