CVE-2024-5971

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: Undertow (affected versions not specified)

Description: A vulnerability was found in Undertow, where the chunked response hangs after the body was flushed. The response headers and body were sent, but the client would continue waiting as Undertow does not send the expected 0r termination of the chunked response. This results in uncontrolled resource consumption, leaving the server side to a denial of service attack. This happens only with Java 17 TLSv1.3 scenarios.

Recommendations: At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
