NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream akhq package and not the akhq package as distributed by Wolfi. See How to fix? for Wolfi relevant fixed versions and status.

Netty is a network application framework for development of protocol servers and clients. Prior to 4.1.136.Final and 4.2.16.Final, Netty SPDY header decoding continues inflating zlib-compressed header blocks after the raw header parser has exceeded maxHeaderSize and marked the frame truncated in SpdyFrameCodec, allowing a remote peer to send a small compressed HEADERS block that expands into much larger raw header data and causes compression-amplified CPU and allocation churn. This issue is fixed in versions 4.1.136.Final and 4.2.16.Final.
