DescriptionGitHub Advisory

webtransport-go is an implementation of the WebTransport protocol. From 0.3.0 to 0.9.0, an attacker can cause excessive memory consumption in webtransport-go's session implementation by sending a WT_CLOSE_SESSION capsule containing an excessively large Application Error Message. The implementation does not enforce the draft-mandated limit of 1024 bytes on this field, allowing a peer to send an arbitrarily large message payload that is fully read and stored in memory. This allows an attacker to consume an arbitrary amount of memory. The attacker must transmit the full payload to achieve the memory consumption, but the lack of any upper bound makes large-scale attacks feasible given sufficient bandwidth. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.10.0.

AnalysisAI

Webtransport-go versions 0.3.0 through 0.9.0 fail to enforce the 1024-byte limit on Application Error Messages in WT_CLOSE_SESSION capsules, allowing remote attackers to trigger unbounded memory consumption by sending oversized payloads. An unauthenticated attacker can exhaust server memory and cause denial of service, requiring only sufficient bandwidth to transmit the malicious payload. The vulnerability is resolved in version 0.10.0, though no patch is currently available for affected versions.
