How to fix?

A fix was pushed into the master branch but not yet published.

Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Reachable Assertion due to a reachable assertion in ~Http2Session() during HTTP/2 session teardown. An attacker can crash the server process by sending HTTP/2 requests that leave a stream holding nghttp2-allocated header buffers after its session is destroyed, which fails the CHECK_EQ(current_nghttp2_memory_, 0) assertion. Only servers that use the http2 module and respond before the request body has ended are affected.

This vulnerability is a bypass of the fix for CVE-2024-27983.
