NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream golang-google-grpc package and not the golang-google-grpc package as distributed by Ubuntu.

Some HTTP/2 implementations are vulnerable to a reset flood, potentially leading to a denial of service. The attacker opens a number of streams and sends an invalid request over each stream that should solicit a stream of RST_STREAM frames from the peer. Depending on how the peer queues the RST_STREAM frames, this can consume excess memory, CPU, or both.
