DescriptionCVE.org

PocketMine-MP versions before 5.44.2 fail to properly validate multiple ResourcePackClientResponsePacket packets with STATUS_COMPLETED status during resource pack handling. Malicious clients can send batches of these packets to repeatedly trigger pre-spawn progression, creating duplicate Player objects and amplifying memory consumption and network traffic.

AnalysisAI

Resource pack handler in PocketMine-MP before 5.44.2 allows connected clients to repeatedly trigger pre-spawn progression by sending multiple ResourcePackClientResponsePacket packets with STATUS_COMPLETED status, causing the server to instantiate duplicate Player objects and amplify both memory consumption and network traffic. The affected code path in ResourcePacksPacketHandler.php lacked a re-entry guard to prevent handler transitions from executing more than once per session. …
