curl — PUSH_PROMISE for a push the client never allowed

The suite could not establish what this client does here. That is a shortcoming of the run rather than anything about the client, and every one of these is on our list to remove.

Every one of these is a page: what the server emits, the clause it is judged against, and how each client answered. The full list carries the verdict tallies too.

Inconclusive

Objected, but at the QUIC layer (rejected at the QUIC layer with INTERNAL_ERROR), so the HTTP/3 error code could not be read. §8.1 carries an HTTP/3 connection error in an application close, and this test asks for 0x108 specifically — whether that was the client's reasoning is not observable from here.

What was measured

Client
curl — ngtcp2 + nghttp3, ngtcp2/1.11.0
Test
PUSH_PROMISE for a push the client never allowedh-push-promise-unsolicited
Clause
RFC 9114 §7.2.5, §4.6 (MUST)
Class
correctness — Rejected something invalid, with the code the RFC names.
Required behaviour
Close the connection with H3_ID_ERROR. §7.2.7 leaves the maximum push ID unset until the client sends MAX_PUSH_ID, so a server "cannot push until it receives a MAX_PUSH_ID frame" and every push ID is larger than the client has advertised. §7.2.5 is explicit about the answer: a client "MUST treat receipt of a PUSH_PROMISE frame that contains a larger push ID than the client has advertised as a connection error of H3_ID_ERROR".

Reproduce it

The suite is the judge, so the reproduction is to point the same client at the same test and let the server report what it saw.

SESSION=$(curl -sX POST https://conformance.pqcrypta.com/session | jq -r .id)
# then drive curl at the test URL and read the verdict:
curl -s https://conformance.pqcrypta.com/report/$SESSION.json | jq '.results["h-push-promise-unsolicited"]'
