Affected Packages:

uwsgi

Vulnerable:

Yes

Security database references:

In Mitre's CVE dictionary: CVE-2020-11984.

More information:

Apache HTTP Server versions before 2.4.32 uses src:uwsgi where a flaw was discovered. The uwsgi protocol does not let us serialize more than 16K of HTTP header leading to resource exhaustion and denial of service.

For Debian 9 stretch, this problem has been fixed in version 2.0.14+20161117-3+deb9u3.

We recommend that you upgrade your uwsgi packages.
