Arch Linux Security Advisory ASA-201908-12 ========================================== Severity: Medium Date : 2019-08-16 CVE-ID : CVE-2019-9511 CVE-2019-9513 CVE-2019-9516 Package : nginx-mainline Type : denial of service Remote : Yes Link : https://security.archlinux.org/AVG-1022 Summary ======= The package nginx-mainline before version 1.17.3-1 is vulnerable to denial of service. Resolution ========== Upgrade to 1.17.3-1. # pacman -Syu "nginx-mainline>=1.17.3-1" The problems have been fixed upstream in version 1.17.3. Workaround ========== Disable http/2 support. Description =========== - CVE-2019-9511 (denial of service) An issue has been found in several HTTP/2 implementations, where the attacker requests a large amount of data from a specified resource over multiple streams. They manipulate window size and stream priority to force the server to queue the data in 1-byte chunks. Depending on how efficiently this data is queued, this can consume excess CPU, memory, or both, potentially leading to a denial of service. - CVE-2019-9513 (denial of service) An issue has been found in several HTTP/2 implementations, where the attacker creates multiple request streams and continually shuffles the priority of the streams in a way that causes substantial churn to the priority tree. This can consume excess CPU, potentially leading to a denial of service. - CVE-2019-9516 (denial of service) An issue has been found in several HTTP/2 implementations, where the attacker sends a stream of headers with a 0-length header name and 0-length header value, optionally Huffman encoded into 1-byte or greater headers. Some implementations allocate memory for these headers and keep the allocation alive until the session dies. This can consume excess memory, potentially leading to a denial of service. Impact ====== A remote attacker is able cause a denial of service by sending a specially crafted packet.
