+
+Apache NiFi 1.5.0 through 2.10.0 support gzip-encoded HTTP requests for the 
application REST API using a Jersey encoding filter. The framework enforced a 
configurable maximum request size on the
+compressed payload rather than the decompressed output, allowing a malicious 
client to send crafted requests that could consume excessive amounts of memory. 
Upgrading to Apache NiFi 2.11.0 is the
+recommended mitigation, which relocates response compression to Jetty Server 
and disables decompression of gzip-encoded HTTP requests.
