REDHAT-BUG-2292211: High severity Undertow Undertow vulnerability
A vulnerability was found in Undertow. Undertow chunked response hangs after the body was flushed. The response headers and body were sent but the client would continue waiting as Undertow does not send the expected 0\r\n termination of the chunked response. This results in an uncontrolled resource consumption leaving the server side to a Denial of Service vulnerability attack. This happens only with Java 17 TLSv1.3 scenarios.
