Summary
  • (es) LibHTP es un analizador que tiene en cuenta la seguridad del protocolo HTTP y sus componentes relacionados. Antes de la versión 0.5.49, el procesamiento ilimitado de los encabezados de solicitud y respuesta HTTP podía generar un uso excesivo de la memoria y del tiempo de CPU, lo que posiblemente provocara ralentizaciones extremas. Este problema se solucionó en la versión 0.5.49.
