Description

Impact

Twisted web servers that utilize the optional HTTP/2 support suffer from the following flow-control related vulnerabilities:

Ping flood: https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2019-9512 Reset flood: https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2019-9514 Settings flood: https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2019-9515

A Twisted web server supports HTTP/2 requests if you've installed the http2 optional dependency set.

Workarounds

There are no workarounds.

Detection & mitigation playbook

Open-source dependency
  1. Detect

    Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for twisted. O3's reachability analysis confirms whether the vulnerable code path is actually invoked in your application, so you act on real exposure instead of every transitive match.

  2. Fix

    Update twisted to 19.10.0 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-32gv-6cf3-wcmq is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

  3. Workarounds

    If you can't upgrade right away: gate or disable the affected feature, validate untrusted input at the boundary, and avoid passing attacker-controlled data into the vulnerable path. O3's runtime protection blocks exploitation in production as an interim safeguard until the upgrade lands.

  4. How O3 protects you

    O3 pinpoints whether GHSA-32gv-6cf3-wcmq is reachable in your code and exactly where to fix it, then blocks exploitation in production at runtime until the patched version is deployed.

Tailored to GHSA-32gv-6cf3-wcmq. Runtime protection reduces exposure until a permanent patch is applied and verified — it complements patching, it doesn't replace it.

Is GHSA-32gv-6cf3-wcmq in your dependencies?

O3 detects GHSA-32gv-6cf3-wcmq across PyPI dependencies and uses function-level reachability to confirm whether the vulnerable code path is actually reachable — not just present. No false positives.
