HTTP/2 Bomb vulnerability leading to memory exhaustion

Posted on

In early June 2026, cybersecurity researchers from Calif (with the help of the AI agent Codex) discovered a new variant of the HTTP/2 Bomb attack, which can operate even from a single client device with an internet connection speed of 100 Mbps. The attack consists of two stages: Manipulating HPACK Compression: In the HTTP/2 protocol, headers are compressed using the HPACK table. The attacker sends an almost empty header, […]

An attack on HTTP/2 implementations leading to exhaustion of available memory

Posted on

Information has been revealed about the 'HTTP/2 Bomb' vulnerability, affecting various implementations of the HTTP/2 protocol and allowing denial of service through exhaustion of all available process memory. The issue has been confirmed in HTTP servers nginx, Apache httpd (CVE-2026-49975), Microsoft IIS, Envoy (CVE-2026-47774), and Cloudflare Pingora in default configuration.
