description

Netty's io.netty:netty-codec-http3 before 4.2.18.Final can mishandle overlong QPACK prefixed integers. A remote unauthenticated peer that can establish an HTTP/3 connection can cause unbounded memory use and excessive event-loop CPU consumption, resulting in denial of service.

mitigation

Upgrade io.netty:netty-codec-http3 to 4.2.18.Final or later. Restrict exposure to untrusted HTTP/3 connections until the upgrade is deployed.

fixed in 4.2.18.Final
