alt Hacker NewsWell, whoever picked the name HTTP2Shell certainly didn't use any intelligence, artificial or genuine.
It's so meaningless, broad and undescriptive of the actual issue. No it probably doesn't affect an HTTP server with nothing else behind it, so why is HTTP being blasted?
You might as well call it Exploit Pro Max...

Actually it does, if the server is willing to decompress POST bodies.

Feels like the goal was sensationalism.

The author clearly used super intelligence.

I immediately thought HTTP/2 was having a bad day somehow. Might I suggest Software2Shell to be less confusing.

I think we've all seen where an LLM names a session, issue, or PR based on its early understanding and fails update it later.
AI isn't being asked to review the title, and it doesn't have experience or think, so of course it's not going to flag it.
No human reviews anything anymore so of course they aren't going to catch it.
Edit: AI for as good as it is at "writing" is terrible at writing and particularly at naming things. I had an AI name a client OpenAICompatibleEmbeddingClient. "Brooooo.. I think "compatible" is implied, who names stuff like that?!"
