A memory leak could occur when a remote peer abruptly closes the socket
without sending a GOAWAY notification. Additionally, if an invalid header
was detected by nghttp2, causing the connection to be terminated by the peer,
the same leak was triggered. This flaw could lead to
increased memory consumption and potential denial of service under
certain conditions.
For Debian 11 bullseye, this problem has been fixed in version
12.22.12~dfsg-1~deb11u6.
