    h2o is vulnerable to heap overrun

    h2o is an HTTP server with support for HTTP/1.x, HTTP/2 and HTTP/3. Prior to commit 8dc37cb, when h2o receives a ClientHello message over TLS or QUIC and it contains a zero-length SNI extension, the h2o server runs over the zero-length hostname while trying t…

    Quicly is vulnerable to connection state corruption

    Quicly is an IETF QUIC protocol implementation intended primarily for use within the H2O HTTP server. Prior to commit 8b178e6, Quicly is vulnerable to a Denial of Service attack through connection state corruption. In QUIC Invariants, the maximum length of a …

    Quicly: Remote Denial of Service via assertion failure when CRYPTO stream handshake data exceeds 32KB

    Quicly is an IETF QUIC protocol implementation intended primarily for use within the H2O HTTP server. Prior to commit 937d0e9, an assertion failure is raised when the total number of valid handshake messages received over a CRYPTO stream of a single packet nu…

  • Medium 5.3

    Quicly is vulnerable to stateless reset injection

    Quicly is an IETF QUIC protocol implementation intended primarily for use within the H2O HTTP server. Prior to commit dccf5d4, Quicly was vulnerable to stateless reset injection through lack of packet entry validation. The QUIC protocol is designed to withsta…

    Quicly is vulnerable to memory exhaustion

    Quicly is an IETF QUIC protocol implementation intended primarily for use within the H2O HTTP server. Prior to commit 8b178e6, an adversarial peer could send a STREAM frame carrying just one byte at the largest offset being permitted to obtain additional flow…

    h2o: musl libc stack overflow (QPACK)

    h2o is an HTTP server with support for HTTP/1.x, HTTP/2 and HTTP/3. Prior to commit edd7a120bfc4af11ac0cbebce2a43cc1f93f9af1, when h2o processes a QPACK instruction sent from the peer over HTTP/3, lib/http3/qpack.c might allocate an on-stack buffer as large a…

  • High 7.5

    Quicly has assertion failures

    Quicly, an IETF QUIC protocol implementation, is susceptible to a denial-of-service attack prior to commit d9d3df6a8530a102b57d840e39b0311ce5c9e14e. A remote attacker can exploit these bugs to trigger an assertion failure that crashes process using Quicly. Co…

    Picotls double free

    Picotls is a TLS protocol library that allows users select different crypto backends based on their use case. When parsing a spoofed TLS handshake message, picotls (specifically, bindings within picotls that call the crypto libraries) may attempt to free the …

    Quicly assertion failures

    Quicly is an IETF QUIC protocol implementation. Quicly up to commtit d720707 is susceptible to a denial-of-service attack. A remote attacker can exploit these bugs to trigger an assertion failure that crashes process using quicly. The vulnerability is address…

    H2O assertion failure when HTTP/3 requests are cancelled

    h2o is an HTTP server with support for HTTP/1.x, HTTP/2 and HTTP/3. When h2o is configured as a reverse proxy and HTTP/3 requests are cancelled by the client, h2o might crash due to an assertion failure. The crash can be exploited by an attacker to mount a De…

    H2O alllows bypassing address-based access control with 0-RTT

    h2o is an HTTP server with support for HTTP/1.x, HTTP/2 and HTTP/3. When an HTTP request using TLS/1.3 early data on top of TCP Fast Open or QUIC 0-RTT packets is received and the IP-address-based access control is used, the access control does not detect and…
