CVE-2026-44248

Netty is an asynchronous, event-driven network application framework. Prior to 4.2.13.Final and 4.1.133.Final, the MQTT 5 header Properties section is parsed and buffered before any message size limit is applied. Specifically, in MqttDecoder, the decodeVariableHeader method is called before the...

CVE-2026-44248

CVE-2026-44248 affects Netty (MQTT 5 support). Before 4.2.13.Final and 4.1.133.Final, MqttDecoder decodes the MQTT 5 header Properties without applying a message-size limit, because decodeVariableHeader() runs before bytesRemainingBeforeVariableHeader > maxBytesInMessage. This can cause enormo...

CVE-2026-44248 Netty: Resource exhaustion in MqttDecoder

Netty is an asynchronous, event-driven network application framework. Prior to 4.2.13.Final and 4.1.133.Final, the MQTT 5 header Properties section is parsed and buffered before any message size limit is applied. Specifically, in MqttDecoder, the decodeVariableHeader method is called before the...

CVE-2026-42587 Netty: HttpContentDecompressor maxAllocation bypass via Content-Encoding: br/zstd/snappy enables decompression bomb DoS

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...

CVE-2026-42587

Netty CVE-2026-42587 affects HttpContentDecompressor and DelegatingDecompressorFrameListener. Before 4.2.13.Final and 4.1.133.Final, maxAllocation is enforced for gzip/deflate but ignored for br, zstd, or snappy, allowing an attacker to bypass the decompression limit via Content-Encoding: br and ...

CVE-2026-42586 Netty: CRLF Injection in Netty Redis Codec Encoder

Netty is an asynchronous, event-driven network application framework. Prior to 4.2.13.Final and 4.1.133.Final, the Netty Redis codec encoder RedisEncoder writes user-controlled string content directly to the network output buffer without validating or sanitizing CRLF \r\n characters. Since the...

CVE-2026-42586

Netty is an asynchronous, event-driven network application framework. Prior to 4.2.13.Final and 4.1.133.Final, the Netty Redis codec encoder RedisEncoder writes user-controlled string content directly to the network output buffer without validating or sanitizing CRLF \r\n characters. Since the...

CVE-2026-42586

CVE-2026-42586 affects Netty up to 4.2.13.Final and 4.1.133.Final where the RedisEncoder writes user-controlled strings to the output buffer without sanitizing CRLF (\n). Because RESP uses CRLF as command/response delimiters, an attacker who controls Redis message content can inject arbitrary Red...

CVE-2026-42585 Netty: HTTP Request Smuggling due to malformed Transfer-Encoding

Netty is an asynchronous, event-driven network application framework. Prior to 4.2.13.Final and 4.1.133.Final, Netty incorrectly parses malformed Transfer-Encoding, enabling request smuggling attacks. This vulnerability is fixed in 4.2.13.Final and 4.1.133.Final...
