GHSA-W7HM-HMXV-PVHF HPACK decoder panics on invalid input

Due to insufficient checking of input data, decoding certain data sequences can lead to Decoder::decode panicking rather than returning an error. Example code that triggers this vulnerability looks like this: rust use hpack::Decoder; pub fn main let input = &0x3f; let mut decoder = Decoder::new;...

AZL-38785 CVE-2023-45288 affecting package azcopy for versions less than 10.25.1-1

An attacker may cause an HTTP/2 endpoint to read arbitrary amounts of header data by sending an excessive number of CONTINUATION frames. Maintaining HPACK state requires parsing and processing all HEADERS and CONTINUATION frames on a connection. When a request's headers exceed MaxHeaderBytes, no...

AZL-39460 CVE-2024-28182 affecting package nghttp2 for versions less than 1.57.0-2

nghttp2 is an implementation of the Hypertext Transfer Protocol version 2 in C. The nghttp2 library prior to version 1.61.0 keeps reading the unbounded number of HTTP/2 CONTINUATION frames even after a stream is reset to keep HPACK context in sync. This causes excessive CPU usage to decode HPACK...
