Description
Sending an HTTP request/response body with greater than 2^31 bytes triggers an infinite loop in proxygen::coro::HTTPQuicCoroSession which blocks the backing event loop and unconditionally appends data to a std::vector per-loop iteration. This issue leads to unbounded memory growth and eventually causes the process to run out of memory.

AI Powered Q&A
Can you explain this vulnerability to me?

This vulnerability occurs when an HTTP request or response body larger than 2^31 bytes is sent, causing an infinite loop in the proxygen::coro::HTTPQuicCoroSession component. This loop blocks the event loop and continuously appends data to a vector, leading to unbounded memory growth and eventually causing the process to run out of memory.


How can this vulnerability impact me? :

The vulnerability can cause the affected process to consume excessive memory until it runs out of memory, potentially leading to denial of service by crashing or severely degrading the performance of the application handling HTTP requests or responses.
