Description from NVD
proxygen's HTTP/3 codec buffered an incomplete non-DATA frame, such as a control-stream frame, a frame of an unknown or reserved type, or a HEADERS frame, until its entire declared length had arrived, without limiting that length, and re-scanned all buffered data each time more bytes arrived. A remote, unauthenticated HTTP/3 peer could declare a very large frame and deliver it slowly, causing unbounded memory growth and CPU usage that grows quadratically with the number of fragments, leading to denial of service. This issue affects proxygen versions prior to v2026.11.09.00.
What this means for your architecture.
A CVE names a product. Whether it matters depends on where that product sits in your systems: what reaches it, which trust boundary it guards and what it can reach once compromised. Veriom maps your components, their relationships and your trust boundaries from your code, cloud and delivery evidence, so you can see where a component like this sits. The radar itself does not look at your systems.
