Improper Handling of Exceptional Conditions vulnerability in Daurnimator lua-http library allows Excessive Allocation and a denial of service (DoS) attack to be executed by sending a properly crafted request to the server. Such a request causes the program to enter an infinite loop.
This issue affects lua-http: all versions before commit ddab283.
The product does not handle or incorrectly handles an exceptional condition.
