DescriptionCVE.org

Netty is a network application framework for development of protocol servers and clients. Prior to versions 4.1.135.Final and 4.2.15.Final, RedisArrayAggregator pre-allocates ArrayList with initial capacity equal to the RESP array element count declared in an array header. That count is taken from the wire before the corresponding child messages exist. A small malicious header can claim a huge initial capacity. Versions 4.1.135.Final and 4.2.15.Final patch the issue.

AnalysisAI

Denial of service in Netty's io.netty:netty-codec-redis component (prior to 4.1.135.Final and 4.2.15.Final) allows remote attackers to trigger memory exhaustion by sending a crafted RESP array header that declares a huge element count, causing RedisArrayAggregator to pre-allocate an oversized ArrayList before any child messages arrive. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, and the issue is not listed in CISA KEV; EPSS data was not provided in the input.

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Requires the target to run a Netty pipeline that includes RedisArrayAggregator from io.netty:netty-codec-redis on a network-reachable socket - i.e. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.5 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H) reflects pure availability impact reachable remotely without authentication or user interaction, which is consistent with a network-facing memory-exhaustion DoS rather than RCE or data loss. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario A remote attacker reaches a service that exposes a Netty pipeline including RedisArrayAggregator on a network-reachable socket and sends a single small RESP array header (e.g. '*2147483647\r\n') declaring a near-MAX_INT element count. …
Remediation Vendor-released patch: 4.1.135.Final (4.1.x) and 4.2.15.Final (4.2.x) - upgrade io.netty:netty-codec-redis (and the rest of the Netty stack) to the matching branch using the release links above and advisory GHSA-5w86-c3rq-vjj7. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
