    High [CVE-2026-55833] Denial of Service via SPDY header decompression amplification

    CVE-2026-55833Source published Source updated

    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. By sending a specially crafted, small compressed header block, the attacker can cause it to expand significantly during decompression, leading to excessive CPU usage and memory allocation. This can result in a denial of service (DoS) due to resource exhaustion. This is an Important denial of service…
