description
Bandit versions 0.3.1 through before 1.14.1 are affected by an HTTP/2 request-body memory exhaustion issue. An unauthenticated remote attacker can consume server memory by sending specially fragmented request bodies to routes that read request bodies, including routes using Plug.Parsers.
mitigation
Upgrade Bandit to version 1.14.1 or later. Until upgraded, reduce exposure by limiting or disabling untrusted HTTP/2 access to routes that read request bodies.
fixed in 1.14.1
outcome
Contextual check: a technique exists and was validated, but no deterministic check could cover this one.
