    CVE-2026-10725 (GCVE-0-2026-10725)

    Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2026-06-06 09:14 – Updated: 2026-06-09 07:20

    Title
    Protocol::HTTP2 versions before 1.13 for Perl is vulnerable to a HTTP/2 Bomb
    Summary
    Protocol::HTTP2 versions before 1.13 for Perl is vulnerable to a HTTP/2 Bomb. Protocol::HTTP2's inbound HPACK path has no header-list size limit, so a small HTTP/2 request can expand into large server memory (the "HTTP/2 bomb"). The headers_decode method materialises a full key+value copy per indexed reference with no running size check, and the stream_header_block_add method appends (since version 1.12) every CONTINUATION frame to the per-stream buffer unbounded. MAX_HEADER_LIST_SIZE (default 65536) is advertised in SETTINGS but never consulted on decode. It is absent from the decoder and from the :limits export tag.
