Technical details
The vulnerability arises from improper handling of truncated HTTP/2 Content-Length values when Traffic Server forwards requests to HTTP/1.1 origin servers. An attacker can craft HTTP/2 requests with malformed Content-Length headers that cause connections to origin servers to hang or consume resources abnormally, exhausting the origin's worker pool and leading to denial of service. The issue affects HTTP/2 to HTTP/1.1 protocol translation logic.
