NewCVE-2026-123865 (opens in a new tab)How to fix?
A fix was pushed into the master branch but not yet published.
Overview
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Missing Release of Memory after Effective Lifetime due to a resource leak in HTTP/2 session handling, where a protocol error during connection shutdown tears the session down inside nghttp2 without Node.js noticing. An attacker can exhaust server memory and file descriptors by sending GOAWAY(NO_ERROR) to start the shutdown and then an invalid frame, such as one with an oversized frame header, which leaves the session and its socket in CLOSE_WAIT indefinitely. Only servers that serve HTTP/2 are affected.
This vulnerability is a bypass of the fix for CVE-2026-48937.
