Description
A security vulnerability in the yunikorn-k8shim package affects HTTP/1 servers where exceeding MaxBytesReader's limit causes the "Connection: close" header to be set automatically without synchronization. This can race with another header set explicitly in the server handler, potentially leading to inconsistent header states.
