CVE-2024-24791

CVE Details

Release Date:2024-07-02

Description


The net/http HTTP/1.1 client mishandled the case where a server responds to a request with an 'Expect: 100-continue' header with a non-informational (200 or higher) status. This mishandling could leave a client connection in an invalid state, where the next request sent on the connection will fail. An attacker sending a request to a net/http/httputil.ReverseProxy proxy can exploit this mishandling to cause a denial of service by sending 'Expect: 100-continue' requests which elicit a non-informational response from the backend. Each such request leaves the proxy with an invalid connection, and causes one subsequent request using that connection to fail.
