http2-specific-attacks

http2-specific-attacks is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from ShulkwiSEC/bb-huge. It costs 61 tokens per session (3,188 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of http2-specific-attacks, MIT.

A security-testing guide for attacks that use HTTP/2, a newer web protocol that sends requests in binary streams. It covers protocol features such as compression, multiplexing, and conversion from HTTP/2 to HTTP/1.1.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when an application supports HTTP/2 and you need to assess its framing, headers, stream handling, upgrades, or HTTP/2-to-HTTP/1.1 translation.
Why use it?
It helps testers examine attack paths that ordinary HTTP/1.1 checks may miss, including parser differences, request mixing, and compression-related weaknesses.

Written for no agent in particular: nothing here depends on one.

Needs its repository: it reads a path above its own folder, which exists only inside the repository. The line is │ │ │ └── See ../request-smuggling/H2_SMUGGLING_VARIANTS.md.

Good fit Use it when an application supports HTTP/2 and you need to assess its framing, headers, stream handling, upgrades, or HTTP/2-to-HTTP/1.1 translation.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

http2-specific-attacks scanned grade A with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 7d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

SKILL: HTTP/2 Specific Attacks — Expert Attack Playbook

AI LOAD INSTRUCTION: HTTP/2 protocol-level attack techniques beyond basic request smuggling. Covers h2c smuggling, pseudo-header manipulation, HPACK attacks, single-packet race conditions, and H2→H1 downgrade injection. Base models conflate HTTP/2 smuggling with HTTP/1.1 smuggling — this skill focuses on H2-unique attack surface.


1. HTTP/2 ATTACK SURFACE OVERVIEW

Feature Attack Surface
Binary framing Frame-level manipulation, parser differentials
HPACK compression Compression oracles (CRIME/BREACH), table poisoning
Multiplexing Single-packet race conditions, RST_STREAM flood
Server push Cache poisoning via unsolicited push
Pseudo-headers (:method/:path/:authority/:scheme) Injection, request splitting, path discrepancy

2. h2c (HTTP/2 CLEARTEXT) SMUGGLING

2.1 Concept

h2c is HTTP/2 without TLS, negotiated via the HTTP/1.1 Upgrade mechanism. Many reverse proxies forward the Upgrade: h2c header without understanding it, allowing attackers to bypass proxy-level access controls.

Client ──[Upgrade: h2c]──> Reverse Proxy ──[forwards blindly]──> Backend
                                                                    │
                                                            Backend speaks H2
                                                            Proxy is blind to
                                                            the H2 conversation
