CVE-2024-2398

Affected software5 products, listed below
Severity8.6 High CVSS 3.1
WeaknessCWE-772
Published27 Mar 2024
Updated15 Oct 2026

Description

When an application tells libcurl it wants to allow HTTP/2 server push, and the amount of received headers for the push surpasses the maximum allowed limit (1000), libcurl aborts the server push. When aborting, libcurl inadvertently does not free all the previously allocated headers and instead leaks the memory. Further, this error condition fails silently and is therefore not easily detected by an application.
