CVE-2026-49754

The CVE-2026-49754 entry describes a memory exhaustion vulnerability in elixir-mint Mint’s HTTP/2 receive path. When a HEADERS frame arrives without END_HEADERS, the unparsed header-block is queued and each subsequent CONTINUATION frame on that stream appends to the accumulator with no cap. There...

CVE-2026-49754 HTTP/2 CONTINUATION flood in Mint client via unbounded header-block accumulation

Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling vulnerability in elixir-mint Mint allows attacker-controlled HTTP/2 servers to exhaust memory in a Mint client HTTP/2 CONTINUATION flood. When Mint's HTTP/2 receive path observes a HEADERS frame without the ENDHEADERS flag, the unparsed...

CVE-2026-33871 Netty HTTP/2 CONTINUATION Frame Flood DoS via Zero-Byte Frame Bypass

Netty is an asynchronous, event-driven network application framework. In versions prior to 4.1.132.Final and 4.2.10.Final, a remote user can trigger a Denial of Service DoS against a Netty HTTP/2 server by sending a flood of CONTINUATION frames. The server's lack of a limit on the number of...

GHSA-Q6CP-QFWQ-4GCV h2 servers vulnerable to degradation of service with CONTINUATION Flood

An attacker can send a flood of CONTINUATION frames, causing h2 to process them indefinitely. This results in an increase in CPU usage. Tokio task budget helps prevent this from a complete denial-of-service, as the server can still respond to legitimate requests, albeit with increased latency. Mo...
