The implementation in versions 1.10.0 through 1.11.1 for HTTP/1.x traffic and all versions of Envoy for HTTP/2 traffic had O(n^2) performance characteristics. A remote attacker may craft a request that stays below the maximum request header size but consists of many thousands of small headers to consume CPU and result in a denial-of-service attack." } ] }, "problemtype": { "problemtype_data": [ { "description": [ { "lang": "eng", "value": "n/a" } ] } ] }, "references": { "reference_data": [ { "url": "https://github.com/envoyproxy/envoy/commits/master", "refsource": "MISC", "name": "https://github.com/envoyproxy/envoy/commits/master" }, { "refsource": "MISC", "name": "https://github.com/envoyproxy/envoy/commit/afc39bea36fd436e54262f150c009e8d72db5014", "url": "https://github.com/envoyproxy/envoy/commit/afc39bea36fd436e54262f150c009e8d72db5014" }, { "refsource": "MISC", "name": "https://github.com/envoyproxy/envoy/issues/8520", "url": "https://github.com/envoyproxy/envoy/issues/8520" } ] } }
