CVE-2025-55181

Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.29%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

Description

Sending an HTTP request/response body with greater than 2^31 bytes triggers an infinite loop in proxygen::coro::HTTPQuicCoroSession which blocks the backing event loop and unconditionally appends data to a std::vector per-loop iteration. This issue leads to unbounded memory growth and eventually causes the process to run out of memory.
