"The version of Atlassian Confluence Server running on the remote host is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in
the CONFSERVER-101480 advisory.
- path-to-regexp turns path strings into a regular expressions. In certain cases, path-to-regexp will output
a regular expression that can be exploited to cause poor performance. Because JavaScript is single
threaded and regex matching runs on the main thread, poor performance will block the event loop and lead
to a DoS. The bad regular expression is generated any time you have two parameters within a single
segment, separated by something that is not a period (.). For users of 0.1, upgrade to 0.1.10. All other
users should upgrade to 8.0.0. (CVE-2024-45296)
