Description

This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.


1) Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-44240)

CWE-ID: CWE-770 - Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling

CVSSv4: 8.7 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service.

The vulnerability exists due to allocation of resources without limits or throttling in FtpContext._partialResponse and FTP control response parsing when processing unterminated multiline control-channel responses during the initial FTP banner phase. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted FTP server banner to cause a denial of service.

The issue is triggered before authentication, and no additional user interaction is required after the application initiates a normal FTP connection.
