Description SMASH SMASH 2024-02-15 08:39:59 UTC

When NGINX Plus or NGINX OSS are configured to use the HTTP/3 QUIC module, undisclosed requests can cause NGINX worker processes to terminate.

Note: The HTTP/3 QUIC module is not enabled by default and is considered experimental. For more information, refer to  Support for QUIC and HTTP/3 https://nginx.org/en/docs/quic.html .

Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated

This is only relevant for Factory, but even then I'm not sure if we build the HTTP/3 module.
