Fedora 25 Jetty Update for CVE-2017-9735 Critical Timing Attack

Jetty is a 100% Java HTTP Server and Servlet Container. This means that you

do not need to configure and run a separate web server (like Apache) in order

to use Java, servlets and JSPs to generate dynamic content. Jetty is a fully

featured web server for static and dynamic content. Unlike separate

server/container solutions, this means that your web server and web

application run in the same process, without interconnection overheads

and complications. Furthermore, as a pure java component, Jetty can be simply

included in your application for demonstration, distribution or deployment.

Jetty is available on all Java supported platforms.
