Package

maven io.netty.incubator:netty-incubator-codec-bhttp (Maven)

Affected versions

<= 0.0.22.Final

Patched versions

0.0.23.Final

Description

We don't enforce any limits for the encoded variable lengths that are used for fields. As the remote peer controls these it's easy for the remote peer to have us buffer data forever and so ultimately OOM.

Severity

High
