Uncaught Exception in Node.js - CVE-2025-59465

Vulnerability identifier: #VU126388

CSH Severity: Medium

CVSS v4: 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]

CVE-ID: CVE-2025-59465

CWE-ID: CWE-248

Exploitation vector: Remote access

Exploit availability: No public exploit available

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service.

The vulnerability exists due to improper error handling in the HTTP/2 server when receiving a malformed HEADERS frame with oversized invalid HPACK data. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted HTTP/2 HEADERS frame to cause a denial of service.

This primarily affects applications that do not attach explicit error handlers to secure sockets.
