large amount of data requests leads to denial of service
CVE: CVE-2019-9511
Component: HTTP/2
CWE: CWE-400
Severity: Important
CVSS v3: 6.7/CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H
Release date: 2019-08-13T00:00:00+00:00

A flaw was found in HTTP/2. An attacker can request a large amount of data by manipulating window size and stream priority to force the server to queue the data in 1-byte chunks. Depending on how efficiently this data is queued, this queue can consume excess CPU, memory, or both, leading to a denial of service. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to system availability.

Statement: There are no mitigations available for nghttp2 and nodejs. Both packages will be updated once the available fixes are released for Red Hat Enterprise Linux and Red Hat Software Collections.

The nodejs RPM shipped in OpenShift Container Platform 3.9 and 3.10 is not affected by this flaw as it does not contain the vulnerable code.

Red Hat Quay 3.0 uses Nginx 1.12 from Red Hat Software Collections. It will be updated once a fixed is released for Software Collections. In the meantime users of Quay can disable http/2 support in Nginx by following these instructions:

1. Copy the Nginx configuration from the quay container to the host
$ docker cp 3aadf1421ba3:/quay-registry/conf/nginx/ /mnt/quay/nginx

2. Edit the Nginx configuration, removing http/2 support
$ sed -i 's/http2 //g' /mnt/quay/nginx/nginx.conf

3. Restart Nginx with the new configuration mounted into the container, eg:
$ docker run --restart=always -p 443:8443 -p 80:8080 --sysctl net.core.somaxconn=4096 -v /mnt/quay/config:/conf/stack:Z -v /mnt/quay/storage:/datastorage -v /mnt/quay/nginx:/quay-registry/config/nginx:Z -d quay.io/redhat/quay:v3.0.3
