3) Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling
EUVDB-ID: #VU70334
Risk: Medium
CVSSv4.0: 5.5 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:P/U:Green]
CVE-ID: CVE-2022-41717
CWE-ID:
CWE-770 - Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to excessive memory growth when handling HTTP/2 server requests. HTTP/2 server connections contain a cache of HTTP header keys sent by the client. While the total number of entries in this cache is capped, an attacker sending very large keys can cause the server to allocate approximately 64 MiB per open connection.
