CVE-2019-9516

Published Aug 13, 2019 CVSS 3.1 · 6.5 Medium EPSS 57.5% KEV · Not listed
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.
