CVE-2026-45149

The brace-expansion library generates arbitrary strings containing a common prefix and suffix. From 5.0.0 to before 5.0.6, the max option was being applied too late. When expanding a single large numeric range like 1..10000000, the sequence generation loop generates all 10 million intermediate...

CVE-2026-45149

The CVE-2026-45149 issue affects the brace-expansion library (Julian Gruber) where the max option was applied too late for 5.0.0–5.0.5. When expanding a large numeric range (e.g., {1..10000000}), the code builds all intermediate elements before enforcing max, allocating about 505 MB and taking ~8...

GHSA-JXXR-4GWJ-5JF2 brace-expansion: Large numeric range defeats documented `max` DoS protection

The max option was being applied too late: When expanding a single large numeric range like 1..10000000, the sequence generation loop generates all 10 million intermediate elements before the max limit is applied With max=10, the output is correctly limited to 10 items, but the process still...

brace-expansion: brace-expansion: Denial of Service via unbounded brace range expansion

A flaw was found in the brace-expansion component. This denial of service DoS vulnerability allows a remote attacker to provide specially crafted input containing repeated numeric brace ranges. This input causes the library to attempt an unbounded expansion, consuming excessive CPU and memory...

DEBIAN-CVE-2017-1000101

curl supports "globbing" of URLs, in which a user can pass a numerical range to have the tool iterate over those numbers to do a sequence of transfers. In the globbing function that parses the numerical range, there was an omission that made curl read a byte beyond the end of the URL if given a...
