GHSA-38F8-5428-X5CV Netty vulnerable to HTTP Request Smuggling due to malformed Transfer-Encoding

Summary Netty incorrectly parses malformed Transfer-Encoding, enabling request smuggling attacks. Details Netty incorrectly marks a request as chunked when malformed "Transfer-Encoding: chunked, identity" is present. According to RFC...

GHSA-57RV-R2G8-2CJ3 Netty has HttpClientCodec response desynchronization

Summary If HttpClientCodec is configured, there are use cases when a response body from one request, can be parsed as another's. Details HttpClientCodec pairs each inbound response with an outbound request by queue.poll once per response, including for 1xx. If the client pipelines GET then HEAD a...

GHSA-MJ4R-2HFC-F8P6 Netty Lz4FrameDecoder is vulnerable to resource exhaustion

Summary Lz4FrameDecoder allocates a ByteBuf of size decompressedLength up to 32 MB per block before LZ4 runs. A peer only needs a 21-byte header plus compressedLength payload bytes - 22 bytes if compressedLength == 1 - to force that allocation. Details...

Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling

Overview io.netty:netty-codec is an event-driven asynchronous network application framework. Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling in the Lz4FrameDecoder component. An attacker can cause excessive memory allocation by sending...

GHSA-2C5C-CHWR-9HQW Netty HTTP/3 QPACK literal unbounded allocation

Summary When Netty decodes HTTP/3 headers, it sometimes runs new bytelength using a length from the wire before checking that many bytes are really there. A small malicious header can claim a huge length on the order of a gigabyte. Details When decoding header blocks, the non-Huffman branch of...
