Package : uwsgi
Version : 2.0.14+20161117-3+deb9u3
CVE ID : CVE-2020-11984

Apache HTTP Server versions before 2.4.32 uses src:uwsgi where a flaw
was discovered. The uwsgi protocol does not let us serialize more
than 16K of HTTP header leading to resource exhaustion and denial of
service.

For Debian 9 stretch, this problem has been fixed in version
2.0.14+20161117-3+deb9u3.

We recommend that you upgrade your uwsgi packages.
