ESP32 crashes and reboots when sending Zalgo Text

[TheStegosaurus1]

Im using a Basic Webserver like this:

#include <Arduino.h>
#include <WiFi.h>
#include <AsyncTCP.h>
#include <ESPAsyncWebServer.h>

AsyncWebServer server(80);

const char* ssid = "ssid";
const char* password = "********";

void setup() {

    Serial.begin(115200);
    WiFi.mode(WIFI_STA);
    WiFi.begin(ssid, password);
    if (WiFi.waitForConnectResult() != WL_CONNECTED) {
        Serial.printf("WiFi Failed!\n");
        return;
    }

    Serial.print("IP Address: ");
    Serial.println(WiFi.localIP());

    server.on("/", HTTP_GET, [](AsyncWebServerRequest *request){
        request->send(200, "text/plain", "Hello, world");
    });

    server.begin();
}

void loop() {
}

When I go to this URL which has some "cursed text" after the ?: zalgo_text.txt UTF-8 Encoded It crashes with this error:

Rebooting...

According to the backtrace, this happens in WebRequest.cpp at line 280 g = u.substring(index +1);

[TheStegosaurus1]

For now i fixed it with a bit of a hacky solution by only processing a requests parameters if its shorter than 1024 Characters. WebRequest.cpp:278

String g = String();
index = u.indexOf('?');
if(index > 0 && u.length() < 1024){
  g = u.substring(index +1);
  u = u.substring(0, index);
}
_url = urlDecode(u);
_addGetParams(g);
