HTTP/2 implementations do not robustly handle abnormal traffic and resource exhaustion

Overview Multiple HTTP/2 implementations are vulnerable to a variety of denial-of-service DoS attacks. Description The Security Considerations section of RFC7540 discusses some of the considerations needed for HTTP/2 connections as they demand more resources to operate than HTTP/1.1 connections...

CVE-2019-9516

Some HTTP/2 implementations are vulnerable to a header leak, potentially leading to a denial of service. The attacker sends a stream of headers with a 0-length header name and 0-length header value, optionally Huffman encoded into 1-byte or greater headers. Some implementations allocate memory fo...

CVE-2019-9518

Some HTTP/2 implementations are vulnerable to a flood of empty frames, potentially leading to a denial of service. The attacker sends a stream of frames with an empty payload and without the end-of-stream flag. These frames can be DATA, HEADERS, CONTINUATION and/or PUSHPROMISE. The peer spends ti...

CVE-2019-9517

Some HTTP/2 implementations are vulnerable to unconstrained interal data buffering, potentially leading to a denial of service. The attacker opens the HTTP/2 window so the peer can send without constraint; however, they leave the TCP window closed so the peer cannot actually write many of the byt...

CVE-2019-9511: Uncontrolled Resource Consumption

Some HTTP/2 implementations are vulnerable to window size manipulation and stream prioritization manipulation, potentially leading to a denial of service. The attacker requests a large amount of data from a specified resource over multiple streams. They manipulate window size and stream priority ...

Microsoft Windows 'HTTP.sys' CVE-2019-9513 Denial of Service Vulnerability

Description Microsoft Windows is prone to a remote denial-of-service vulnerability. An attacker can exploit this issue to cause the affected system to become unresponsive, resulting in a denial-of-service condition. Technologies Affected Microsoft Windows 10 Version 1607 for 32-bit Systems...

KB4512501: Windows 10 Version 1803 August 2019 Security Update

The remote Windows host is missing security update 4512501. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities : - An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists when Windows improperly handles calls to Advanced Local Procedure Call ALPC. An attacker who successfully exploited this...

CVE-2019-9514

Some HTTP/2 implementations are vulnerable to a reset flood, potentially leading to a denial of service. The attacker opens a number of streams and sends an invalid request over each stream that should solicit a stream of RSTSTREAM frames from the peer. Depending on how the peer queues the...

NGINX -- Multiple vulnerabilities

NGINX Team reports: Several security issues were identified in nginx HTTP/2 implementation which might cause excessive memory consumption and CPU usage CVE-2019-9511, CVE-2019-9513, CVE-2019-9516. The issues affect nginx compiled with the ngxhttpv2module not compiled by default if the http2 optio...

CVE-2019-9515: Uncontrolled Resource Consumption

Some HTTP/2 implementations are vulnerable to a settings flood, potentially leading to a denial of service. The attacker sends a stream of SETTINGS frames to the peer. Since the RFC requires that the peer reply with one acknowledgement per SETTINGS frame, an empty SETTINGS frame is almost...

CVE-2019-9518: Uncontrolled Resource Consumption

HTTP/2 CVE-2019-9517 Remote Denial of Service Vulnerability

Description HTTP/2 is prone to a remote denial-of-service vulnerability. Attackers can exploit this issue to consume excess memory, denying service to legitimate users. Technologies Affected Apache Apache 2.4.20 Apache Apache 2.4.23 Apache Apache 2.4.25 Apache Apache 2.4.26 Apache Apache 2.4.27...

CVE-2019-9513: Uncontrolled Resource Consumption

Some HTTP/2 implementations are vulnerable to resource loops, potentially leading to a denial of service. The attacker creates multiple request streams and continually shuffles the priority of the streams in a way that causes substantial churn to the priority tree. This can consume excess CPU...
