"The version of Atlassian Confluence Server running on the remote host is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in

- Incomplete Cleanup vulnerability in Apache Tomcat. The internal fork of Commons FileUpload packaged with
Apache Tomcat 9.0.70 through 9.0.80 and 8.5.85 through 8.5.93 included an unreleased, in progress
refactoring that exposed a potential denial of service on Windows if a web application opened a stream for
an uploaded file but failed to close the stream. The file would never be deleted from disk creating the
possibility of an eventual denial of service due to the disk being full. Users are recommended to upgrade
to version 9.0.81 onwards or 8.5.94 onwards, which fixes the issue. (CVE-2023-42794)
