Notes

The nginx developers do not consider nginx to be affected by this issue due to the default configuration restricting the number of requests per connectiong (keepalive_requests). They did provide a patch to harden nginx even further in environments where the default are substantially modified. haproxy was fixed in 2018 by the commit listed below Debian's tomcat9 update caused a regression, investigate before fixing tomcat packages.
