description

Micronaut HTTP Server Netty 5.2.x through 5.2.16 can process compressed request bodies without consistently applying body-size limits or read backpressure. An unauthenticated client able to send compressed requests may consume excessive server memory and disrupt service.

mitigation

Reject or strip compressed request bodies at an ingress proxy where possible, and restrict unauthenticated access to affected endpoints. Monitor for an updated Micronaut release and upgrade when a vendor-fixed version is published.
