CVE-2022-41723 is a denial-of-service vulnerability in Go's HTTP/2 HPACK decoder, affecting the HTTP/2 implementation bundled with net/http and golang.org/x/net/http2 when HTTP/2 is manually configured. Maliciously crafted HTTP/2 streams trigger quadratic-complexity behavior during HPACK decoding, causing disproportionate CPU consumption.
