highpriority · track · 0EPSS 0.006 · 50 %ileEURUUSEPSS · scored 2026-10-28
Middleware causes a prohibitive amount of heap allocations when processing malicious preflight requests that include a Access-Control-Request-Headers (ACRH) header whose value contains many commas. This behavior can be abused by attackers to produce undue load on the middleware/server as an attempt to cause a denial of service.
