The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service.
The vulnerability exists due to asymmetric resource consumption in HTTP/2 downstream request processing when handling specially crafted cookie headers with HPACK decoded-size amplification. A remote attacker can send specially crafted HTTP/2 requests to cause a denial of service.
