Summary

Apache Traffic Server versions 9.2.15, 10.1.4 and 10.2.0 are affected. The proxy writes one unthrottled diagnostic log line for each internal @ header it strips (CWE-400). A remote attacker who can send requests with many such headers makes the proxy write far more log data than the request contains, causing a denial of service.

Description from the CNA

Apache Traffic Server 9.2.15, 10.1.4 and 10.2.0 write one unthrottled diagnostic log line for every internal @ header they strip, so a request carrying many such headers makes the proxy write far more log data than the request contains. This issue affects Apache Traffic Server: 9.2.15, 10.1.4, 10.2.0. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 9.2.16, 10.1.5, or 10.2.1, which fix the issue.
