Security PSA: 16 Advisories in HTTP.jl (Please upgrade to 2.4.0)

We are in the process of publishing 16 advisories in HTTP.jl all of them fixed in the just-released HTTP.jl 2.4.0. See the SecurityAdvisories.jl repo (Publish HTTP.jl security advisories - Pull Request #549 - JuliaLang/SecurityAdvisories.jl - GitHub) for details. None of these are particularly major by themselves, but as a set they add up, so we recommend all users upgrade as soon as possible.

These issues were detected by a version of Claude Mythos and disclosed to the Julia Security team by Anthropic’s Coordinated Vulnerability Disclosure team. We thank them for their efforts.

It’s been requested that I clarify that this is unrelated to the recent CI issues (which we are still in the process of fully resolving and will have a separate writeup once fully complete).
