NVD Description

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

The HTTP/2 protocol allows a denial of service (server resource consumption) because request cancellation can reset many streams quickly, as exploited in the wild in August through October 2023.
