These functions do not allow to set a a timeout value for reading requests. As a result, the app server may be vulnerable to a Slowloris Denial-of-Service (DoS) attack. Slowloris attacks exploit the fact that HTTP servers keep the connection active if the request received is incomplete. To mitigate this, implement a Server and set the timeout with ReadHeaderTimeout.
