Package : tinyproxy Version : 1.10.0-5+deb11u1 CVE ID : CVE-2022-40468 CVE-2023-49606

Two issues have been found in tinyproxy, a lightweight, non-caching, optionally anonymizing HTTP proxy.
They are related to an use after free in header parsing of GTTP connections and a potential leak of left-over heap data.

For Debian 11 bullseye, these problems have been fixed in version 1.10.0-5+deb11u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your tinyproxy packages.
