Remote, unauthenticated, low-complexity UDP attack with no user interaction; impact is availability-only memory exhaustion, so C:N/I:N/A:H and scope unchanged.

Lifecycle Timeline
1DescriptionCVE.org
Eclipse Wakaama before snapshot/2026-05-26 contains an unbounded memory allocation vulnerability in the CoAP Block1 handler within coap/block.c that allows unauthenticated remote attackers to exhaust server memory by sending a sequence of Block1 PUT requests with incrementing block numbers. Attackers can target the registration endpoint over UDP without authentication, causing the server to repeatedly reallocate a growing accumulation buffer by appending each block payload without enforcing any maximum total size limit, resulting in denial of service through memory exhaustion.
AnalysisAI
Memory-exhaustion denial of service in Eclipse Wakaama (an OMA LwM2M client/server library) before snapshot 2026-05-26 allows unauthenticated remote attackers to crash the server by streaming CoAP Block1 PUT requests. The CoAP Block1 handler in coap/block.c appends each incoming block to a reassembly buffer without capping total size, so an attacker reaching the UDP registration endpoint can force unbounded reallocation until memory is exhausted. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires network reachability to Wakaama's LwM2M/CoAP registration endpoint over UDP (typically port 5683), with the server running a vulnerable version before snapshot/2026-05-26 and accepting CoAP Block1 (block-wise transfer) PUT requests to that endpoint. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | This is a credible real-world availability risk against exposed LwM2M servers, though impact is confined to denial of service. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An attacker on a network path to an exposed LwM2M server sends a stream of CoAP Block1 PUT requests to the UDP registration endpoint, each carrying a payload block with an incrementing block number and the 'more blocks' flag set. Because the server keeps appending each block to a growing reassembly buffer with no total-size cap, sustained sending drives memory allocation until the process is exhausted and the service crashes or becomes unresponsive. … |
| Remediation | Vendor-released patch: upgrade to the Eclipse Wakaama snapshot/2026-05-26 release (https://github.com/eclipse-wakaama/wakaama/releases/tag/snapshots%2F2026-05-26), which incorporates the fix from commit a83f1ca28fa090fbc03c3669fef40daf4f89cd03 and PR #881 (https://github.com/eclipse-wakaama/wakaama/pull/881); because Wakaama is typically embedded as a library, rebuild and redeploy affected firmware/servers against the patched source. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
