CVE-2024-53259 is a denial-of-service vulnerability in quic-go on Linux. Affected versions use IP_PMTUDISC_DO for path MTU discovery and accept the resulting path-MTU condition after an off-path attacker injects a forged ICMP Packet Too Large message. If the forged message advertises an MTU below QUIC's mandatory 1200-byte minimum, subsequent attempts by quic-go to send a larger packet cause the kernel to return a "message too large" error from sendmsg. This disrupts an already established QUIC connection and can bypass application-layer TCP fallback logic that is only invoked when QUIC connection establishment fails.
