Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
s2n-quic versions before 1.82.0 are vulnerable to excessive memory allocation when processing CRYPTO frames, which have no enforced maximum buffer size. An unauthenticated remote attacker can send crafted packets with high offsets, without a valid handshake, to exhaust server memory and cause denial of service. Upgrade to s2n-quic 1.82.0 or later; the source lists no workaround.
