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
