jetty/jetty8/jetty9 not affected by CVE-2018-12538

[Hugo Lefeuvre <hle@debian.org>]

Hi,

FYI, none of the jetty releases present in Debian are affected by
CVE-2018-12538.

CVE-2018-12538 affects FileSessionDataStore and more specifically its
function getFile(). This class was introduced in 9.4, this
vulnerability thus affects 9.4.x releases only (and jetty package has
version < 9.0, jetty9 has <= 9.2.24).

FTR FileSessionDataStore was introduced in
fa8232d3c81608c25d9e8c66cdfe8ab7a66c892b and the vulnerable code in
54a56314627f0a2c33ca67d813e3396f6bc03274.

regards,
 Hugo
