Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions gRPC (affected versions not specified)
Description The issue arises when the gRPC HTTP2 stack encounters a header size exceeded error, causing it to skip parsing the rest of the HPACK frame. This results in a desynchronization of HPACK tables between the sender and receiver. If exploited, this could lead to requests from a proxy being interpreted as containing headers from different proxy clients, resulting in an information leak that can be used for privilege escalation or data exfiltration.
Recommendations At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
