Description
Improper validation of the Destination Connection ID length in s2n-quic 1.88.0 and earlier may allow an unauthenticated remote user to cause a denial of service by shutting down a server endpoint via a single crafted UDP datagram. Only server endpoints specifically configured to send Retry packets are affected. To remediate this issue, users should upgrade to version v1.89.0 or later.
