**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions** cpp-httplib versions prior to 0.22.0 cpp-httplib version 0.21.0 **Description** cpp-httplib is a C++11 single-file header-only cross platform HTTP/HTTPS library. A resource management issue exists in version 0.21.0 due to the library not limiting the number of HTTP headers it processes. This can lead to uncontrolled resource consumption, potentially exhausting system memory and causing a server crash or unresponsiveness when many HTTP header fields are passed in. The memory associated with the headers is not released when the connection is disconnected. **Recommendations** Upgrade to cpp-httplib version 0.22.0 or later.
