With the default configuration of tls-listener, a malicious user can open 6.4 `TcpStream`s a second, sending 0 bytes, and can trigger a DoS. The default configuration options make any public service using `TlsListener::new()` vulnerable to a slow-loris DoS attack. This impacts any publicly accessible service using the default configuration of tls-listener in versions prior to 0.10.0. Users are advised to upgrade. Users unable to upgrade may mitigate this by passing a large value, such as `usize::MAX` as the parameter to `Builder::max_handshakes`.\n\n","state":0,"publishedAt":"2024-03-15T19:15:07.627+00:00","modifiedAt":"2026-06-17T07:21:53.827+00:00","affected":[],"metrics":[{"system":"CVSS 3.1 · security-advisories@github.com · Secondary","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","score":7.5,"severity":"HIGH"},{"system":"CVSS 3.1 · nvd@nist.gov · Primary","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","score":7.5,"severity":"HIGH"}],"references":["https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slowloris_(computer_security)","https://github.com/tmccombs/tls-listener/commit/d5a7655d6ea9e53ab57c3013092c5576da964bc4","https://github.com/tmccombs/tls-listener/security/advisories/GHSA-2qph-qpvm-2qf7"],"sourceUrl":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2024-28854","license":"NIST NVD usage terms; underlying source attribution retained","enrichment":{"sourceStatus":"Analyzed","weaknesses":["CWE-400"],"productCriteria":["cpe:2.3:a:tmccombs:tls-listener:*:*:*:*:*:rust:*:*"],"sourceDates":{"published":"2024-03-15T19:15:07.627","lastModified":"2026-06-17T07:21:53.827"},"relatedAdvisories":[],"note":"NVD analysis and CPE criteria are source context, not proof that a package or your environment is affected.
