Subject: client_max_header_size config directive
Date: Sun, 12 Jun 2011 22:26:38 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110612222638.GA27267@dcvr.yhbt.net> (raw)

This new directive limits the maximum size of a request header for all
requests.

Default: 112 kilobytes (114688 bytes)

Lowering this will lower worst-case memory usage and mitigate some
denial-of-service attacks.  This should be larger than
client_header_buffer_size.

The default value is carried over from Mongrel and Unicorn.

This requires unicorn 3.7.0+

This directive is NOT available in nginx, but is named similarly to
client_max_body_size (which Rainbows! also supports)

git clone git://bogomips.org/rainbows.git
ref: commit 281ef555c40cf292809ad10d623d0571fafc790e
