    It was discovered that GoBGP incorrectly handled certain malformed BGP UPDATE messages containing SRv6 L3
    Service attributes. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause GoBGP to crash, resulting in
    a denial of service. (CVE-2026-7734)

    It was discovered that GoBGP incorrectly handled certain malformed BGP UPDATE messages containing
    Accumulated IGP (AIGP) attributes. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause GoBGP to
    crash, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2026-7735)

    It was discovered that GoBGP incorrectly handled certain malformed Multi- threaded Routing Toolkit (MRT)
    routing information entries. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause GoBGP to crash,
    resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2026-7736)

    It was discovered that GoBGP incorrectly handled certain malformed Multi- threaded Routing Toolkit (MRT)
    headers. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause GoBGP to crash, resulting in a denial of
    service. (CVE-2026-7737)
