NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream toolbox package and not the toolbox package as distributed by AlmaLinux. See How to fix? for AlmaLinux:9 relevant fixed versions and status.

The HTTP/2 protocol allows a denial of service (server resource consumption) because request cancellation can reset many streams quickly, as exploited in the wild in August through October 2023.
