Hello,
I have been reading on CRIME and BREACH attacks and I want to learn better how to protect against them.
From what I understood, those attacks require TLS encryption over HTTP compression and HTTP content reflecting an user input.
My questions are:
HTTP/2 uses HPACK and HTTP/3 uses QPACK header compressions, which are secure against CRIME and BREACH. If my secret data is only in headers, does that mean that I can safely use HTTP compression, with HTTP/2 or HTTP/3?
If only a part of the HTTP response is compressed (e.g., the body), but the secrets are not compressed, is it safe?
