When an HTTP interface is still processing a request and the user refreshes the webpage or closes the browser, the browser automatically terminates the ongoing connection with the server. This results in the cancellation of any pending GET requests, which is standard behavior according to the HTTP protocol's request-response paradigm. The subsequent exceptions observed on the server side are therefore expected and normal, as they reflect the protocol's inherent design where client-side interruptions automatically abort in-flight requests.
To improve our system's error handling, may I ask:
Is there a recommended configuration in Jetty to either suppress this exception entirely or reconfigure its log level from ERROR to DEBUG/INFO?
Are there established patterns in Jetty for gracefully handling these protocol-level interruptions while maintaining clean server logs?
Any suggestion will be appreciated.

Jetty 9.x is at End of Community Support.

• EoCS (End of Community Support) for Jetty 9 - June 2022 #7958

You should be using a supported version of Jetty at this point in time.
As of today, that would be Jetty 12.
