6DescriptionCVE.org
gRPC-Go is the Go language implementation of gRPC. Prior to 1.83.1, internal/transport/transport.go stores each fragmented HTTP/2 DATA frame as a separate recvMsg in recvBuffer, so millions of one-byte frames can consume disproportionate heap memory even when payload bytes remain within connection and stream flow-control windows. An unauthenticated remote attacker can use concurrent multiplexed streams to exhaust process memory and cause a runtime panic or out-of-memory termination. Receive-buffer compaction is enabled by default and can be controlled temporarily with GRPC_GO_EXPERIMENTAL_ENABLE_RECEIVE_BUFFER_COMPACTION. This issue is fixed in version 1.83.1.
AnalysisAI
Memory exhaustion in gRPC-Go before version 1.83.1 allows an unauthenticated remote attacker to crash any service built on this library by sending HTTP/2 streams fragmented into millions of tiny one-byte DATA frames. Each fragment is stored as a separate recvMsg object in recvBuffer, creating severe heap overhead that bypasses HTTP/2 flow-control protections - which limit payload bytes, not the number of allocated metadata objects. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | No special configuration is required - the vulnerability is triggered by normal HTTP/2 framing behavior in any gRPC-Go server or client prior to 1.83.1 that accepts connections. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VA:H) accurately reflects the attack surface: network-accessible, low complexity, no authentication, high availability impact. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in. |
| Remediation | Upgrade gRPC-Go to version 1.83.1 or later, the vendor-released patch confirmed by the GitHub release at https://github.com/grpc/grpc-go/releases/tag/v1.83.1 and associated security advisory GHSA-vp52-pcj8-j9qc. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
