      <title>CVE-2021-29509 — Keepalive Connections Causing Denial Of Service in puma</title>
      <link>https://cve.radiocsirt.org/vuln/cve-2021-29509</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; puma&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Puma is a concurrent HTTP 1.1 server for Ruby/Rack applications. The fix for CVE-2019-16770 was incomplete. The original fix only protected existing connections that had already been accepted from having their requests starved by greedy persistent-connections saturating all threads in the same process. However, new connections may still be starved by greedy persistent-connections saturating all threads in all processes in the cluster. A `puma` server which received more concurrent `keep-alive` connections than the server had threads in its threadpool would service only a subset of connections, denying service to the unserved connections. This problem has been fixed in `puma` 4.3.8 and 5.3.1. Setting `queue_requests false` also fixes the issue. This is not advised when using `puma` without a reverse proxy, such as `nginx` or `apache`, because you will open yourself to slow client attacks (e.g. slowloris). The fix is very small and a git patch is available for those using unsupported versions of Puma.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <title>GHSA-q28m-8xjw-8vr5 — Puma's Keepalive Connections Causing Denial Of Service</title>
      <link>https://cve.radiocsirt.org/vuln/ghsa-q28m-8xjw-8vr5</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; RubyGems: puma&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This vulnerability is related to [CVE-2019-16770](https://github.com/puma/puma/security/advisories/GHSA-7xx3-m584-x994).&lt;/p&gt;

The original fix only protected existing connections that had already been accepted from having their requests starved by greedy persistent-connections saturating all threads in the same process.

&lt;p&gt;### Workarounds&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Setting `queue_requests false` also fixes the issue. This is not advised when using `puma` without a reverse proxy, such as `nginx` or `apache`, because you will open yourself to slow client attacks (e.g. [slowloris](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slowloris_(computer_security))).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The fix is very small. [A git patch is available here](https://gist.github.com/nateberkopec/4b3ea5676c0d70cbb37c82d54be25837) for those using [unsupported versions](https://github.com/puma/puma/security/policy#supported-versions) of Puma.&lt;/p&gt;
