  "details": "## Summary\n\nInefficient Algorithmic Complexity vulnerability in the header integer parser of mtrudel bandit allows an unauthenticated remote attacker to consume server CPU via a `content-length` value or a `Host` or `:authority` port made of thousands of digits.\n\n`Bandit.Headers.parse_integer/2` in `lib/bandit/headers.ex` builds the number one digit at a time with no limit on the digit count, allocating a new bignum at each step, so one value costs time quadratic in its length. It runs on raw request input over HTTP/1 and HTTP/2, before any range check. Over HTTP/2, a 4,000-digit value can be stored once in the HPACK dynamic table and re-sent on each new stream for about one byte: 124 KB of traffic kept the server busy for 27.9 s.\n\nThis issue affects bandit: from 1.0.0-pre.7 before 1.14.0.\n\n## Details\n\n**1. Unbounded digit loop.** `Bandit.Headers.parse_integer/2` in `lib/bandit/headers.ex` builds the number with `total * 10 + digit - ?0` and has no limit on the digit count. Each step allocates a new bignum, so parsing one value costs O(n²). On OTP 28, 10,000 digits take about 10 ms, 50,000 about 250 ms and 80,000 about 560 ms, where `String.to_integer/1` handles the same inputs in 1 to 3 ms.\n\n**2. Reached on raw input.** It is called from `get_content_length/1` and `parse_hostlike_header!/1` on raw request input, before any range check. An all-digit `content-length` is returned as `{:ok, huge_int}`, and the `is_port_number` guard only runs after the whole number is built.\n\n**3. HPACK amplification.** Over HTTP/2, a 4,000-digit value (about 1.1 ms to parse) can be stored once in the HPACK dynamic table and then re-sent on each new stream for about one byte.\n\n## Proof of concept\n\n1. Run Bandit with any Plug.\n2. Open an HTTP/2 connection with prior knowledge and complete the SETTINGS exchange.\n3. In one write, send 5,000 HEADERS frames for `POST /` on new streams, each carrying a `content-length` of 4,000 `9` digits encoded with HPACK indexing, so that every frame after the first refers to the stored value.\n4. The 124,003 bytes take 27.9 s to process before all 5,000 requests reach the Plug.\n\n## Impact\n\nAn unauthenticated client can make the server spend CPU time out of all proportion to the traffic it sends (27.9 s for 124 KB in the reporter's test). This affects any Bandit server reachable by untrusted clients over HTTP/1 or HTTP/2, with no special configuration.",
