Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Sep 15, 2026
Remote unauthenticated denial of service in the libp2p-quic transport crate (Rust implementation of libp2p) prior to 0.13.1: a peer that completes a valid-looking QUIC/TLS handshake with a deliberately short-lived libp2p TLS certificate and then withholds the final TLS 1.3 handshake fragment until that certificate expires triggers a wall-clock validity re-check in the post-handshake upgrade path, where an expect() call panics and tears down the application hosting the QUIC listener. Only a single inbound connection from a network peer is needed, no malformed packets are required, and the attack is fully automatable against any service exposing an affected libp2p-quic listener. The flaw is an uncaught exception (CWE-248) and is fixed in 0.13.1; no public exploit code and no CISA KEV listing were identified at time of analysis, though the GHSA advisory publishes a precise reproduction recipe.

Lifecycle Timeline
2DescriptionCVE.org
libp2p-rust is the official Rust language implementation of the libp2p networking stack. Prior to 0.13.1, libp2p-quic could panic during an inbound QUIC handshake when a remote peer presented a valid short-lived libp2p TLS certificate and delayed the final TLS 1.3 handshake fragment until after the certificate expired. In the Quinn post-handshake upgrade path, transports/quic/src/connection/connecting.rs called libp2p_tls::certificate::parse a second time in remote_peer_id and used expect on the result. The repeated wall-clock validity check could reject the now-expired certificate, causing the expect call to terminate any application exposing an affected libp2p-quic listener. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.13.1.
