GHSA-7GRG-JCF7-RPMX AsyncHttpClient's unbounded HTTP/1.1 response decompression enables a decompression-bomb denial of service

Impact With automatic response decompression enabled the default, the HTTP/1.1 path decompresses response bodies with no limit on the total output size. A hostile or compromised server, or an attacker who can change a response in transit, can send a small compressed body that inflates without bou...

netty: io.netty/netty-codec-http: io.netty/netty-codec-http2: Netty: Denial of Service via unbounded memory allocation in HTTP content decompression

A flaw was found in Netty. A remote attacker can bypass the configured decompression limit in the HttpContentDecompressor by sending a specially crafted compressed payload using Brotli br, Zstandard zstd, or Snappy content encodings. This can lead to unbounded memory allocation, resulting in an...

CVE-2026-42587: Uncontrolled Resource Consumption

Netty is an asynchronous, event-driven network application framework. Prior to 4.2.13.Final and 4.1.133.Final, HttpContentDecompressor accepts a maxAllocation parameter to limit decompression buffer size and prevent decompression bomb attacks. This limit is correctly enforced for gzip and deflate...
