Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
Undertow versions 2.3.0.Final up to but not including 2.3.12.Final, and versions before 2.2.31.Final, are affected by an uncontrolled resource consumption flaw in undertow-core. The affected servers support the wildfly-http-client protocol. A remote attacker who repeatedly opens and immediately closes connections to the HTTP port can leak connections until memory and open file limits are exhausted. Upgrade undertow-core to 2.3.12.Final or 2.2.31.Final.
