  <description>
    <p>A bug in the SPDY implementation in nginx was found which might cause a
      heap memory buffer overflow in a worker process by using a specially
      crafted request. The SPDY implementation is not enabled in default
      configurations.
    </p>

      specially crafted request.
    </p>
  </impact>
  <workaround>
