Protocol::HTTP2 versions before 1.13 for Perl is vulnerable to a HTTP/2 Bomb.
Protocol::HTTP2's inbound HPACK path has no header-list size limit, so a small HTTP/2 request can expand into large server memory (the "HTTP/2 bomb").
The headers_decode method materialises a full key+value copy per indexed reference with no running size check, and the stream_header_block_add method appends (since version 1.12) every CONTINUATION frame to the per-stream buffer unbounded.
MAX_HEADER_LIST_SIZE (default 65536) is advertised in SETTINGS but never consulted on decode. It is absent from the decoder and from the :limits export tag.

Title: Protocol::HTTP2 de CRUX, Description: Las versiones de Protocol::HTTP2 anteriores a la 1.13 para Perl son vulnerables a una bomba HTTP/2.
La ruta HPACK de entrada de Protocol::HTTP2 no tiene límite de tamaño para la lista de encabezados, por lo que una pequeña solicitud HTTP/2 puede expandirse en una gran cantidad de memoria del servidor (la 'bomba HTTP/2').
El método headers_decode materializa una copia completa de clave+valor por referencia indexada sin una verificación de tamaño en ejecución, y el método stream_header_block_add añade (desde la versión 1.12) cada trama CONTINUATION al búfer por flujo sin límites.
MAX_HEADER_LIST_SIZE (valor predeterminado 65536) se anuncia en SETTINGS pero nunca se consulta durante la decodificación. Está ausente del decodificador y de la etiqueta de exportación :limits.
