ALMALINUX9.2:CLSA-2025:1752922753 advisory.

  - An attacker can make the Node.js HTTP/2 server completely unavailable by sending a small amount of HTTP/2
    frames packets with a few HTTP/2 frames inside. It is possible to leave some data in nghttp2 memory after
    reset when headers with HTTP/2 CONTINUATION frame are sent to the server and then a TCP connection is
    abruptly closed by the client triggering the Http2Session destructor while header frames are still being
    processed (and stored in memory) causing a race condition. (CVE-2024-27983)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
