Fixes and workarounds
No explicit solution text in the downloaded CVE record. Consult the vendor advisory; unaffected version ranges are shown above as reported, not inferred as a patch recommendation.
Reported workarounds: 1. explicitly configure the enabled plugins in `conf/config.yaml`, ensure `batch-requests` is disabled. (Or just comment out `batch-requests` in `conf/config-default.yaml`) Or 1. upgrade to 2.10.4 or 2.12.1.
