Affected: CleanStart: clickhouse-operator

Multiple security vulnerabilities affect the clickhouse-operator package. An attacker can pass a malicious malformed token which causes unexpected memory to be consumed during parsing. See references for individual vulnerability details.

Affected: Go standard library net/http, golang.org/x/net/http2, go_standard_library net\/http, golang http2

An attacker may cause an HTTP/2 endpoint to read arbitrary amounts of header data by sending an excessive number of CONTINUATION frames. Maintaining HPACK state requires parsing and processing all HEADERS and CONTINUATION frames on a connection. When a request's headers exceed MaxHeaderBytes, no memory is allocated to store the excess headers, but they are still parsed. This permits an attacker to cause an HTTP/2 endpoint to read arbitrary amounts of header data, all associated with a request which is going to be rejected. These headers can include Huffman-encoded data which is significantly more expensive for the receiver to decode than for an attacker to send. The fix sets a limit on the amount of excess header frames we will process before closing a connection.
