Remedy

This flaw is only exploitable if Apache httpd is configured to respond to HTTP/2 requests, which is done by including "h2" or "h2c" in the "Protocols" list in a configuration file. The following command can be used to search for possible vulnerable configurations: grep -R '^\s*Protocols\>.*\<h2\>' /etc/httpd/ See https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/mod_http2.html

Remedy

Unpatched servers can disable HTTP/2 push with the "H2Push off" directive.
