Overview
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Use of Uninitialized Resource in the ngx_http_slice_module process when the slice directive is used with unnamed regex captures or during a background cache update. An attacker can access uninitialized memory, potentially disclosing sensitive information or causing a restart of the worker process by sending specially crafted requests. This is only exploitable if the ngx_http_slice_module is enabled with the --with-http_slice_module configuration parameter.
