CVE-2026-100655 (opens in a new tab)How to fix?
Upgrade io.netty:netty-codec-http to version 4.1.138.Final, 4.2.18.Final or higher.
Amendment
This was deemed not a vulnerability.
Overview
io.netty:netty-codec-http is a network application framework for rapid development of maintainable high performance protocol servers & clients.
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling in SpdySessionHandler, whose localConcurrentStreams limit defaults to Integer.MAX_VALUE and which exposes no public API to lower it. An attacker can exhaust heap and direct memory and drive the JVM to OutOfMemoryError by sending a large number of SYN_STREAM frames with FLAG_FIN=0 over a single connection, each opening a stream whose tracking state persists. This requires the service to accept SPDY connections from untrusted sources, and one connection is sufficient.
Note: CVE-2026-100655 was rejected by the CVE List.
