Description
Envoy is an open source edge and service proxy designed for cloud-native applications. Prior to 1.36.10, 1.37.6, 1.38.4, and 1.39.1, Envoy's HttpDatagramHandler caches the current RequestDecoder when Capsule Protocol is enabled.

A subsequent HTTP/3 datagram can call decodeData through the freed decoder, causing invalid virtual dispatch a
