Man-in-the-middle attack in HTTP/2

Hyper Text Transfer Protocol Version 2 (HTTP/2) is the upgrade to the popularly used HTTP/1.1. This protocol has been created to enhance the already existing services and applications based on the older protocol with few modifications and rewriting. Thus, this has opened up to new possible vulnerabilities and attacks on them. HTTP/2 relies on Transport Layer Security (TLS) for its security. This paper intends to carry out Man-in-the-Middle (MITM) attack in an HTTP/2 environment by exploiting a known vulnerability of TLS. To the best of our knowledge, no study has been done on how MITM attacks can be launched against HTTP/2 services.
