nimiq-libp2p is a Nimiq network implementation based on libp2p. Prior to version 1.3.0, MessageCodec::read_request and read_response call read_to_end() on inbound substreams, so a remote peer can send only a partial frame and keep the substream open. because Behaviour::new also sets with_max_concurrent_streams(1000), the node exposes a much larger stalled-slot budget than the library default. The patch for this vulnerability is formally released as part of v1.3.0. No known workarounds are available.
AnalysisAI
Denial of service in nimiq-libp2p prior to version 1.3.0 allows remote peers to exhaust node resources by sending partial frames on inbound substreams and keeping them open. The vulnerability combines unbounded stream reading via read_to_end() with a high concurrent stream limit of 1000, enabling attackers to accumulate stalled slots and degrade network availability without authentication or user interaction.
