  - Apache Traffic Server's origin_server_auth plugin lets a client force signing of attacker-chosen AWS
    request headers under the proxy's own credentials. This issue affects Apache Traffic Server: from 8.0.0
    through 8.1.11, from 9.0.0 through 9.2.15, from 10.0.0 through 10.1.4, 10.2.0. Users are recommended to
    upgrade to version 9.2.16, 10.1.5, or 10.2.1, which fix the issue. (CVE-2026-111812)
