CVE-2023-44487 SNYK-DEBIAN11-NGHTTP2-5953384

[github-actions]

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream nghttp2 package and not the nghttp2 package as distributed by Debian.
See How to fix? for Debian:11 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.

Remediation

Upgrade Debian:11 nghttp2 to version 1.43.0-1+deb11u1 or higher.
