Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Missing Release of Resource after Effective Lifetime due to a race condition in the server when handling RST_STREAM and GOAWAY frames. An attacker can cause the server to become unresponsive by sending specially crafted HTTP/2 requests that trigger blocking writes which are never unblocked, eventually exhausting all server threads.
