Jetty 9 security notice uncovers a denial of service flaw and includes patches for Debian's stable and oldstable versions.
Jetty 9 is a Java based web server and servlet engine

Summary

Jetty 9 is a Java based web server and servlet engine. It was discovered that
remote attackers may leave many HTTP/2 connections in ESTABLISHED state (not
closed), TCP congested and idle. Eventually the server will stop accepting new
connections from valid clients which can cause a denial of service.

For the oldstable distribution (bullseye), this problem has been fixed
in version 9.4.50-4+deb11u2.

For the stable distribution (bookworm), this problem has been fixed in
version 9.4.50-4+deb12u3.

We recommend that you upgrade your jetty9 packages.
