GHSA-mq44-7p77-q5h7

CVE Information

Summary

The client accepts and decompresses frames with the RSV1 bit set even when the permessage-deflate extension was not negotiated.

Impact

A client may unexpectedly decompress WebSocket frames when explicitly opted out. This could lead to additional CPU/memory consumption, but is unlikely to be a significant issue unless a zip bomb vulnerability or similar is also present.
