TL;DR

Mint's HTTP/1 parser appends every parsed response header and every chunked trailer header into an unbounded per-request list. A malicious server can stream header or trailer lines indefinitely without sending the terminating blank line, so the list and its memory grow until the client process crashes. The behavior is reachable by any client that connects to an untrusted server. The fix bounds the accumulated header and trailer data.

Who does this affect?

You are affected if you are using a version that falls within the vulnerable range and you use Mint as an HTTP/1 client against untrusted servers.
