Descriptions
Some HTTP/2 implementations are vulnerable to a header leak, potentially leading to a denial of service. The attacker sends a stream of headers with a 0-length header name and 0-length header value, optionally Huffman encoded into 1-byte or greater headers. Some implementations allocate memory for these headers and keep the allocation alive until the session dies. This can consume excess memory.
Algunas implementaciones de HTTP / 2 son vulnerables a una fuga de encabezado, lo que puede conducir a una denegación de servicio. El atacante envía una secuencia de encabezados con un nombre de encabezado de longitud 0 y un valor de encabezado de longitud 0, opcionalmente Huffman codificado en encabezados de 1 byte o más. Algunas implementaciones asignan memoria para estos encabezados y mantienen viva la asignación hasta que la sesión muere. Esto puede consumir un exceso de memoria.
A flaw was found in HTTP/2. An attacker, sending a stream of header with a 0-length header name and a 0-length header value, could cause some implementations to allocate memory for these headers and keep the allocations alive until the session dies. The can consume excess memory, potentially leading to a denial of service. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to system availability.
