CVE-2024-30255

Envoy is a cloud-native, open source edge and service proxy. The HTTP/2 protocol stack in Envoy versions prior to 1.29.3, 1.28.2, 1.27.4, and 1.26.8 are vulnerable to CPU exhaustion due to flood of CONTINUATION frames. Envoy's HTTP/2 codec allows the client to send an unlimited number of CONTINUATION frames even after exceeding Envoy's header map limits. This allows an attacker to send a sequence of CONTINUATION frames without the END_HEADERS bit set causing CPU utilization, consuming approximately 1 core per 300Mbit/s of traffic and culminating in denial of service through CPU exhaustion. Users should upgrade to version 1.29.3, 1.28.2, 1.27.4, or 1.26.8 to mitigate the effects of the CONTINUATION flood. As a workaround, disable HTTP/2 protocol for downstream connections.

Summary
  • (es) Envoy es un proxy de servicio y borde de código abierto, nativo de la nube. La pila de protocolos HTTP/2 en las versiones de Envoy anteriores a 1.29.3, 1.28.2, 1.27.4 y 1.26.8 son vulnerables al agotamiento de la CPU debido a la inundación de tramas de CONTINUACIÓN. El códec HTTP/2 de Envoy permite al cliente enviar un número ilimitado de tramas de CONTINUACIÓN incluso después de exceder los límites del mapa de encabezado de Envoy. Esto permite a un atacante enviar una secuencia de tramas CONTINUATION sin que el bit END_HEADERS esté configurado causando la utilización de la CPU, consumiendo aproximadamente 1 núcleo por cada 300 Mbit/s de tráfico y culminando en una denegación de servicio por agotamiento de la CPU. Los usuarios deben actualizar a la versión 1.29.3, 1.28.2, 1.27.4 o 1.26.8 para mitigar los efectos de la inundación de CONTINUACIÓN. Como workaround, deshabilite el protocolo HTTP/2 para conexiones descendentes.
