Some HTTP/2 implementations are vulnerable to a reset flood, potentially leading to a denial of service. The attacker opens a number of streams and sends an invalid request over each stream that should solicit a stream of RST_STREAM frames from the peer. Depending on how the peer queues the RST_STREAM frames, this can consume excess memory, CPU, or both.

Are you affected?

Enter the version you run. The result uses only the ranges stored on this record.

The check returns affected, not affected, or incomplete. It does not guess a version that is missing from the record.

  • cpe apache/traffic server>= 6.0.0, <= 6.2.3
  • cpe apache/traffic server>= 7.0.0, <= 7.1.6
  • cpe apache/traffic server>= 8.0.0, <= 8.0.3
