In subsys/net/lib/http/http_server_http2.c, handle_http2_static_fs_resource() passed &client->data_len as the file_size out-parameter of http_server_find_file(). client->data_len is the count of unprocessed bytes remaining in the fixed-size per-connection receive buffer client->buffer[CONFIG_HTTP_SERVER_CLIENT_BUFFER_SIZE] (256 bytes by default), an invariant every frame handler and the socket receive path rely on. Serving any static file therefore replaced that bounded value with the file's on-disk size, and nothing resets it afterwards.\n\nThe defect is reached by an unauthenticated HTTP/2 GET for any file under the web root, in applications that register a static-filesystem resource (HTTP_RESOURCE_TYPE_STATIC_FS) with CONFIG_FILE_SYSTEM=y; CONFIG_HTTP_SERVER_VERSION_2 is enabled by default and no TLS or credentials are required on this path. Once client->data_len exceeds the buffer size, the frame dispatch loop in subsys/net/lib/http/http_server_core.c keeps parsing past the end of the received data, and the peer controls the bytes at client->cursor, so it can choose which fabricated frame the state machine consumes next by appending bytes after its request.\n\nThe inflated length defeats the only guards on the buffer. parse_http_frame_header() and the per-frame handlers read and skip up to a 24-bit frame length beyond the buffer (out-of-bounds read); the compaction memmove(client->buffer, client->cursor, client->data_len) at the end of request handling copies the file-size number of bytes into the 256-byte buffer, overflowing the rest of struct http_client_ctx — including the current_detail/current_stream pointers, the parser_settings function-pointer table and the inactivity_timer work handler — and the adjacent client contexts in static memory; and the subsequent zsock_recv(client->fd, client->buffer + client->data_len, sizeof(client->buffer) - client->data_len, 0) underflows its size argument, writing attacker-supplied data of attacker-chosen length out of bounds.\n\nThe impact is remote memory corruption in the server's single address space: at minimum a crash or hang of the device, and plausibly control-data overwrite leading to code execution. The HTTP/1 and HTTP/3 static-filesystem handlers already used a local variable and are unaffected; the fix makes the HTTP/2 handler use a local size_t file_size as well." } ], "affected": [ { "vendor": "zephyrproject", "product": "zephyr", "collectionURL": "https://github.com/zephyrproject-rtos/zephyr", "packageName": "zephyr", "defaultStatus": "unaffected", "programFiles": [ "subsys/net/lib/http/http_server_http2.c" ], "programRoutines": [ { "name": "handle_http2_static_fs_resource" } ], "versions": [ { "version": "4.0.0", "status": "affected", "versionType": "semver", "lessThan": "4.3.2" }, { "version": "4.4.0", "status": "affected", "versionType": "semver", "lessThan": "4.5.0" } ] } ], "references": [ { "url": "https://github.com/zephyrproject-rtos/zephyr/commit/4e0a5f38b14dba5891fb558c49a526f9f6a3cc29", "name": "Fix commit", "tags": [ "patch" ] }, { "url": "https://github.com/zephyrproject-rtos/zephyr/security/advisories/GHSA-8jrg-wx88-g75j", "name": "GHSA-8jrg-wx88-g75j" } ], "metrics": [ { "format": "CVSS", "cvssV3_1": { "version": "3.1", "vectorString": "CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:H", "baseScore": 9.1, "baseSeverity": "CRITICAL" } } ], "problemTypes": [ { "descriptions": [ { "lang": "en", "description": "memory-safety", "cweId": "CWE-787", "type": "CWE" } ] } ], "x_generator": { "engine": "cvelib 1.8.0" } } } }
