Description
A malformed `HTTP/2 HEADERS` frame with oversized, invalid `HPACK` data can cause Node.js to crash by triggering an unhandled `TLSSocket` error `ECONNRESET`. Instead of safely closing the connection, the process crashes, enabling a remote denial of service. This primarily affects applications that do not attach explicit error handlers to secure sockets, for example:
```
server.on('secureConnection', socket => {
socket.on('error', err => {
console.log(err)
})
})
```
```
server.on('secureConnection', socket => {
socket.on('error', err => {
console.log(err)
})
})
```
