Overview
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling due to the lack of enforced limits on variable length fields in the BinaryHttpParser. An attacker can exhaust system memory by sending specially crafted requests with excessively large or numerous variable length fields, causing the application to buffer unbounded data.
