CWE-754

Description

Pomerium is an open source identity-aware access proxy. Envoy, which Pomerium is based on, can abnormally terminate if an H/2 GOAWAY and SETTINGS frame are received in the same IO event. This can lead to a DoS in the presence of untrusted *upstream* servers. 0.15.1 contains an upgraded envoy binary with this vulnerability patched. If only trusted upstreams are configured, there is not substantial risk of this condition being triggered.

Affected configurations

• envoyproxy envoy (< 1.18.4) • envoyproxy envoy 1.19.0 • pomerium pomerium 0.15.0
