1) Protection mechanism failure (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-24733)
CWE-ID: CWE-693 - Protection Mechanism Failure

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass implemented security restrictions.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient implementation of security measures when handling HTTP/0.9 requests. If the server is configured to allow HEAD requests to a URI but deny GET requests, an attacker can bypass that constraint on GET requests by sending a (specification invalid) HEAD request.
Remediation
Install update from vendor's website.
