MaxResponseHeadersLength
properly Category Usage Fix is breaking or non-breaking Non-breaking Enabled by default in .NET 9 As suggestion Cause
The HttpClientHandler.MaxResponseHeadersLength property is set to a value greater than 128.
Rule descriptionThe HttpClientHandler.MaxResponseHeadersLength property is measured in kilobytes, not bytes. The default maximum length is 64 KB, which should be large enough for a majority of use cases. If you set the property to a value greater than 128 kilobytes, it might be due to a misunderstanding of the units of this property.
How to fix violationsIf you intended to set a smaller value, update it to the desired value measured in kilobytes.
ExampleHttpClientHandler handler = new()
{
// Violation
MaxResponseHeadersLength = 512
// Fix (it is not possible to specify a limit lower than 1 KB)
MaxResponseHeadersLength = 1
};
Dim handler As New HttpClientHandler With {
' Violation
.MaxResponseHeadersLength = 512
' Fix (it is not possible to specify a limit lower than 1 KB)
.MaxResponseHeadersLength = 1
}
When to suppress errors
It's safe to suppress this warning if the large value is intended.
