HIGH 7.5

Description

nghttp2 is an implementation of the Hypertext Transfer Protocol version 2 in C. Prior to version 1.68.1, the nghttp2 library stops reading the incoming data when user facing public API `nghttp2_session_terminate_session` or `nghttp2_session_terminate_session2` is called by the application. They might be called internally by the library when it detects the situation that is subject to connection error. Due to the missing internal state validation, the library keeps reading the rest of the data after one of those APIs is called. Then receiving a malformed frame that causes FRAME_SIZE_ERROR causes assertion failure. nghttp2 v1.68.1 adds missing state validation to avoid assertion failure. No known workarounds are available.

Analysis

nghttp2 before version 1.68.1 fails to properly validate internal state when session termination APIs are invoked, allowing an attacker to send a malformed frame that triggers an assertion failure and crashes the application. This denial of service vulnerability affects applications using the nghttp2 HTTP/2 library and can be triggered remotely without authentication or user interaction. …

Remediation

Within 24 hours: inventory all systems using nghttp2 and assess exposure; identify critical services and prioritize protection. Within 7 days: implement network-layer mitigations (WAF rules blocking malformed HTTP/2 frames, rate limiting on HTTP/2 connections) and enable detailed HTTP/2 logging for attack detection. …
