CVE-2019-9513  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade SLES:15.1 nginx-source to version 1.14.2-6.3.1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream nginx-source package and not the nginx-source package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:15.1 relevant fixed versions and status.

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.
