The HTTP/2 protocol stack in Envoy versions prior to 1.29.3, 1.28.2, 1.27.4, and 1.26.8 are vulnerable to CPU exhaustion due to flood of CONTINUATION frames. Envoy's HTTP/2 codec allows the client to send an unlimited number of CONTINUATION frames even after exceeding Envoy's header map limits. This allows an attacker to send a sequence of CONTINUATION frames without the END_HEADERS bit set causing CPU utilization, consuming approximately 1 core per 300Mbit/s of traffic and culminating in denial of service through CPU exhaustion. Users should upgrade to version 1.29.3, 1.28.2, 1.27.4, or 1.26.8 to mitigate the effects of the CONTINUATION flood. As a workaround, disable HTTP/2 protocol for downstream connections." } ] }, "problemtype": { "problemtype_data": [ { "description": [ { "lang": "eng", "value": "CWE-390: Detection of Error Condition Without Action", "cweId": "CWE-390" } ] } ] }, "affects": { "vendor": { "vendor_data": [ { "vendor_name": "envoyproxy", "product": { "product_data": [ { "product_name": "envoy", "version": { "version_data": [ { "version_affected": "=", "version_value": ">= 1.29.0, < 1.29.3" }, { "version_affected": "=", "version_value": ">= 1.28.0, < 1.28.2" }, { "version_affected": "=", "version_value": ">= 1.27.0, < 1.27.4" }, { "version_affected": "=", "version_value": "< 1.26.8" } ] } } ] } } ] } }, "references": { "reference_data": [ { "url": "https://github.com/envoyproxy/envoy/security/advisories/GHSA-j654-3ccm-vfmm", "refsource": "MISC", "name": "https://github.com/envoyproxy/envoy/security/advisories/GHSA-j654-3ccm-vfmm" }, { "url": "http://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2024/04/05/3", "refsource": "MISC", "name": "http://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2024/04/05/3" } ] }, "source": { "advisory": "GHSA-j654-3ccm-vfmm", "discovery": "UNKNOWN" }, "impact": { "cvss": [ { "attackComplexity": "LOW", "attackVector": "NETWORK", "availabilityImpact": "LOW", "baseScore": 5.3, "baseSeverity": "MEDIUM", "confidentialityImpact": "NONE", "integrityImpact": "NONE", "privilegesRequired": "NONE", "scope": "UNCHANGED", "userInteraction": "NONE", "vectorString": "CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L", "version": "3.1" } ] } }
