    Package        : starlette
    CVE ID         : CVE-2026-48817 CVE-2026-54282 CVE-2026-54283
    Debian Bug     : 1140631 1140632

    Several vulnerabilities were discovered in starlette, a lightweight ASGI
    framework/toolkit, which could result in bypass of authorization checks
    or denial of service.

    For the stable distribution (trixie), these problems have been fixed in
    version 0.46.1-3+deb13u3.

    We recommend that you upgrade your starlette packages.

    For the detailed security status of starlette please refer to its
    security tracker page at:
