Description

This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.


1) Asymmetric Resource Consumption (Amplification) (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-47774)

CWE-ID: CWE-405 - Asymmetric Resource Consumption (Amplification)

CVSSv4: 8.7 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]


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.

Flow-control stalling can prolong stream lifetime and delay reclamation of per-stream memory, increasing the effectiveness of the attack.
