  streams and then rapidly triggering the server to reset them, using malformed frames or flow
  control errors, an attacker can exploit incorrect stream accounting. Streams reset by the server
  are considered closed at the protocol level, even though backend processing continues. This
  allows a client to cause the server to handle an unbounded number of concurrent streams on a
  single connection.");
