| Doc Text: |
A denial-of-service vulnerability, stemming from memory exhaustion, has been identified in the cpp-httplib C++ HTTP/HTTPS library. This flaw is a result of the library's insufficient limits on the processing of HTTP headers. A remote attacker could exploit this by sending specially crafted HTTP requests with overly large or numerous headers, causing excessive memory consumption and ultimately leading to a program crash. This impacts the availability and stability of applications using cpp-httplib.
