AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:C

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: Apache Traffic Server versions 9.2.0 through 9.2.5

Description: The issue is related to insufficient input validation when handling the Host header field, which can cause Apache Traffic Server to crash on some platforms. This can be exploited by a remote attacker to cause a denial of service.

Recommendations: For versions 9.2.0 through 9.2.5, upgrade to version 9.2.6, which fixes the issue, or 10.0.2, which does not have the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the Host header field to minimize the risk of exploitation.
