nginx: NGINX: Arbitrary code execution or Denial of Service via heap-based buffer overflow with crafted HTTP/2 headers

A flaw was found in NGINX. When NGINX is configured to proxy HTTP/2 traffic using the ngxhttpproxyv2module or ngxhttpgrpcmodule with specific settings, a remote, unauthenticated attacker can send specially crafted large headers. This can trigger a heap-based buffer overflow, leading to a restart ...

The vulnerabilities of the ngx_http_proxy_v2_module and ngx_http_grpc_module modules in NGINX Plus and NGINX Open Source web servers allow attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause service interruptions.

The vulnerability of the ngxhttpproxyv2module and ngxhttpgrpcmodule modules in NGINX Plus and NGINX Open Source web servers stems from the execution of operations outside of the buffer in memory. Exploiting this vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code or cause service...
