The setup of an HTTP/2 session starts with a speculative HTTP/1 transport, and upon upgrading to h2 the HTTP/1 request is repurposed as stream zero. During the upgrade, a buffer allocation is made to reserve space to send frames to the client. This allocation would split the original workspace, and depending on the amount of prefetched data, the next fetch could perform a pipelining operation that would run out of workspace.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","score":7.5},"cwes":["CWE-670"],"references":["https://docs.varnish-software.com/security/VEV00002/"],"products":["varnish-software:varnish_enterprise","vinyl-cache:vinyl_cache"],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-26T21:38:48.864438205+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-40394","score":0.00236,"percentile":0.14518,"date":"2026-10-26"},"kev":null,"osv":[],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
