New research has unveiled a vulnerability within the HTTP/2 protocol, known as HTTP/2 CONTINUATION Flood, that allows for denial-of-service (DoS) attacks. This issue, discovered by security researcher Bartek Nowotarski and reported to CERT/CC on January 25, 2024, arises from improper handling of CONTINUATION frames—a component used to transmit extended header lists within a single stream. CERT/CC's advisory highlights that attackers exploiting this vulnerability could send continuous CONTINUATION frames without concluding them with an END_HEADERS flag, leading to potential server crashes or significant performance drops due to out-of-memory conditions or CPU exhaustion.
