This patch improves the robustness of the QPACK varint decoder and fixes potential 1-byte out-of-bounds reads in qpack_decode_fs(). In qpack_decode_fs(), two 1-byte OOB reads were possible on truncated streams between two varint decoding. These occurred when trying to read the byte containing the Huffman bit <h> and the Value Length prefix immediately following an Index or a Name Length. Note that these OOB are limited to a single byte because qpack_get_varint() already ensures that its input length is non-zero before consuming any data. The fixes in qpack_decode_fs() are: - When decoding an index, we now verify that at least one byte remains to safely access the following <h> bit and value length. - When decoding a literal, we now check len < name_len + 1 to ensure the byte starting the header value is reachable. In qpack_get_varint(), the maximum value is now strictly capped at 2^62-1 as per RFC. This is enforced using a budget-based check: (v & 127) > (limit - ret) >> shift This prevents values from overflowing into the 63rd or 64th bits, which would otherwise break subsequent signed comparisons (e.g., if (len < name_len)) by interpreting the length as a negative value, leading to false positive tests. Thank you to @jming912 for having reported this issue in GH #3302. Must be backported as far as 2.6
HAProxy
HAProxy is a free, very fast and reliable reverse-proxy offering high availability, load balancing, and proxying for TCP and HTTP-based applications.
Installation
The INSTALL file describes how to build HAProxy. A list of packages is also available on the wiki.
Getting help
The discourse and the mailing-list are available for questions or configuration assistance. You can also use the slack or IRC channel. Please don't use the issue tracker for these.
The issue tracker is only for bug reports or feature requests.
Documentation
The HAProxy documentation has been split into a number of different files for ease of use. It is available in text format as well as HTML. The wiki is also meant to replace the old architecture guide.

- INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install HAProxy
- BRANCHES to understand the project's life cycle and what version to use
- LICENSE for the project's license
- CONTRIBUTING for the process to follow to submit contributions
The more detailed documentation is located into the doc/ directory:
- doc/intro.txt for a quick introduction on HAProxy
- doc/configuration.txt for the configuration's reference manual
- doc/lua.txt for the Lua's reference manual
