    HTTP/3 QPACK “Header Accordions” memory-amplification DoS

    FoxIO published research (Oct 20 2026) showing that missing or late decoded-header limits in QPACK let a tiny HTTP/3 HEADERS frame expand into huge server memory use (up to ~4000× on Bun). Seven of ten implementations tested were vulnerable; quic-go, Cloudflare quiche, lsquic and Wireshark are patched, while Bun, aioquic/mitmproxy and h3 remained unpatched at publication.

    nginx 1.31.7 / 1.30.6 security fixes (HTTP/3, TLS tickets, overflows)

    nginx published multiple medium/major advisories fixed in 1.31.7+ and 1.30.6+, including HTTP/3 request-body injection (CVE-2026-95101), TLS session-ticket forgery (CVE-2026-97629), AIO use-after-free (CVE-2026-97205), and buffer overflows in alias/rewrite and map/regex paths. Same-day chatter bundled this with the PHP/Node/GitLab rush for anyone terminating HTTP on nginx.
