Severity Low
Affected Packages 1
Unaffected Packages 2
CVEs 1
Info Packages Vulnerabilities

Some HTTP/2 implementations are vulnerable to resource loops, potentially leading to a denial of service. 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.

Package Affected Version
pkg:nginx/nginx >= 1.9.5, <= 1.17.2
Package Unaffected Version
pkg:nginx/nginx >= 1.17.3
pkg:nginx/nginx >= 1.16.1
