The vulnerability exists due to improper management of internal resources within the application when processing new h2c connection requests. A remote attacker can send specially crafted requests to the server and obtain contents of HTTP responses, served to other users.
3) Deserialization of Untrusted Data (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-25329)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to insecure input validation when processing serialized data. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
Note, the vulnerability exists due to incomplete fix for #VU28158 and requires a certain specific configuration.
