About this tag
HAProxy is a high-performance load balancer and reverse proxy widely used for HTTP and TCP workloads. Recent discussions on WindowsForum.com focus on critical security vulnerabilities affecting HAProxy deployments. CVE-2024-45506 involves a logic flaw in the HTTP/2 zero-copy forwarding path that can cause remote denial of service through endless loops or crashes, with active exploitation observed. CVE-2025-11230 is a high-severity DoS vulnerability in the embedded mjson JSON parser, where specially crafted numeric values trigger inefficient algorithm complexity, leading to process hangs or termination. Both issues require urgent patching to maintain availability. These threads provide mitigation steps and patch guidance for HAProxy operators.
