CVE-2026-82391

The HTTP/2 front-end of the Zephyr HTTP server aliased connection receive state as a scratch output. In subsys/net/lib/http/httpserverhttp2.c, handlehttp2staticfsresource() passed &client->datalen as the filesize out-parameter of httpserverfindfile(). client->datalen is the count of unprocessed bytes remaining in the fixed-size per-connection receive buffer client->buffer[CONFIGHTTPSERVERCLIENTBUFFERSIZE] (256 bytes by default), an invariant every frame handler and the socket receive path rely on. Serving any static file therefore replaced that bounded value with the file's on-disk size, and nothing resets it afterwards. The defect is reached by an unauthenticated HTTP/2 GET for any file under the web root, in applications that register a static-filesystem resource (HTTPRESOURCETYPESTATICFS) with CONFIGFILESYSTEM=y; CONFIGHTTPSERVERVERSION2 is enabled by default and no TLS or credentials are required on this path. Once client->datalen exceeds the buffer size, the frame dispatch loop in subsys/net/lib/http/httpservercore.c keeps parsing past the end of the received data, and the peer controls the bytes at client->cursor, so it can choose which fabricated frame the state machine…
