CVE-2026-42587

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-2026-44302

Snappier is a high performance C implementation of the Snappy compression algorithm. Prior to 1.3.1, Snappier.SnappyStream enters an uncatchable infinite loop when decompressing a malformed framed-format Snappy stream as small as 15 bytes. This vulnerability is fixed in 1.3.1...

CVE-2026-44302

CVE-2026-44302 affects Snappier, a C# implementation of Snappy. The vulnerability lies in SnappyStream decompression: when processing malformed framed-format input (as small as 15 bytes), SnappyStream enters an uncatchable infinite loop inside SnappyStreamDecompressor.Decompress, causing a busy-w...

Unity Linux 20.1070e Security Update: netty (UTSA-2026-017447)

The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the UTSA-2026-017447 advisory. The Snappy frame decoder function doesn't restrict the chunk length which may lead to excessive memory usage. Beside this it also may buffer reserved skippable chunk...

GHSA-F6HV-JMP6-3VWV Netty: HttpContentDecompressor maxAllocation bypass when Content-Encoding set to br/zstd/snappy leads to decompression bomb DoS

Summary HttpContentDecompressor accepts a maxAllocation parameter to limit decompression buffer size and prevent decompression bomb attacks. This limit is correctly enforced for gzip and deflate encodings via ZlibDecoder, but is silently ignored when the content encoding is br Brotli, zstd, or...

Improper Handling of Highly Compressed Data (Data Amplification)

Overview io.netty:netty-codec-http2 is a HTTP2 sub package for the netty library, an event-driven asynchronous network application framework. Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Improper Handling of Highly Compressed Data Data Amplification in the HttpContentDecompressor and...

Improper Handling of Highly Compressed Data (Data Amplification)

Overview Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Improper Handling of Highly Compressed Data Data Amplification in the HttpContentDecompressor and DelegatingDecompressorFrameListener components when the Content-Encoding header is set to br, zstd, or snappy. An attacker can exhaust...
