Vulnerability from variot

Some HTTP/2 implementations are vulnerable to window size manipulation and stream prioritization manipulation, potentially leading to a denial of service. The attacker requests a large amount of data from a specified resource over multiple streams. They manipulate window size and stream priority to force the server to queue the data in 1-byte chunks. Depending on how efficiently this data is queued, this can consume excess CPU, memory, or both. Multiple HTTP/2 implementations are vulnerable to a variety of denial-of-service (DoS) attacks. A resource management error vulnerability exists in HTTP/2. ========================================================================== Ubuntu Security Notice USN-6754-1 April 25, 2024
