Package : tomcat9
CVE ID : CVE-2023-44487

A regression was discovered in the Http2UpgradeHandler class of Tomcat 9
introduced by the patch to fix CVE-2023-44487 (Rapid Reset Attack). A wrong
value for the overheadcount variable forced HTTP2 connections to close early.

For the oldstable distribution (bullseye), this problem has been fixed
in version 9.0.43-2~deb11u9.

We recommend that you upgrade your tomcat9 packages.
