CVE-2019-9516 Information

Share on:

Description

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.
