Description Hans de Graaff gentoo-dev Security 2023-10-10 17:12:13 UTC
A malicious HTTP/2 client which rapidly creates requests and
immediately resets them can cause excessive server resource consumption.
While the total number of requests is bounded to the
http2.Server.MaxConcurrentStreams setting, resetting an in-progress
request allows the attacker to create a new request while the existing
one is still executing.

HTTP/2 servers now bound the number of simultaneously executing
handler goroutines to the stream concurrency limit. New requests
arriving when at the limit (which can only happen after the client
has reset an existing, in-flight request) will be queued until a
handler exits. If the request queue grows too large, the server
will terminate the connection.

This issue is also fixed in golang.org/x/net/http2 v0.17.0,
for users manually configuring HTTP/2.

The default stream concurrency limit is 250 streams (requests)
per HTTP/2 connection. This value may be adjusted using the
golang.org/x/net/http2 package; see the Server.MaxConcurrentStreams
setting and the ConfigureServer function.

This is CVE-2023-39325 and Go issue https://go.dev/issue/63417.
This is also tracked by CVE-2023-44487.

Comment 2 Sebastian Pipping gentoo-dev 2023-10-12 13:30:35 UTC
Bumping dev-lang/go to 1.21.3 and 1.20.10 is enough to fix the issue according to https://groups.google.com/g/golang-announce/c/iNNxDTCjZvo .
