Add MITRE ATT&CK tactics and techniques that apply to this CVE.

Description

Netty is an asynchronous event-driven network application framework for rapid development of maintainable high performance protocol servers & clients. The SniHandler can allocate up to 16MB of heap for each channel during the TLS handshake. When the handler or the channel does not have an idle timeout, it can be used to make a TCP server using the SniHandler to allocate 16MB of heap. The SniHandler class is a handler that waits for the TLS handshake to configure a SslHandler according to the indicated server name by the ClientHello record. For this matter it allocates a ByteBuf using the value defined in the ClientHello record. Normally the value of the packet should be smaller than the handshake packet but there are not checks done here and the way the code is written, it is possible to craft a packet that makes the SslClientHelloHandler. This vulnerability has been fixed in version 4.1.94.Final.
