CVE-2026-112331 Details
Description
Motor.NET before 0.19.0 contains a denial-of-service vulnerability that allows a remote attacker who can produce records to a consumed topic to crash the service permanently by sending a single crafted record. By setting the content-type header to application/cloudevents+json and omitting required CloudEvent attributes (id, source, type), the attacker triggers an ArgumentException in KafkaMessageConsumer.SingleMessageHandlingAsync that is treated as fatal, causing the host to stop and re-process the same poison record on every restart, resulting in a permanent crash-loop.
A denial-of-service vulnerability has been identified in Motor.NET versions prior to 0.19.0. This vulnerability allows remote attackers to crash the service permanently by sending a single crafted record to a consumed Kafka topic. The attack involves setting the content-type header to 'application/cloudevents+json' and omitting required CloudEvent attributes (id, source, type). This triggers a fatal ArgumentException in the 'KafkaMessageConsumer.SingleMessageHandlingAsync' method, causing the host to stop and repeatedly process the same problematic record on each restart, leading to a continuous crash-loop.
Users can upgrade to Motor.NET version 0.19.0 or later, where this vulnerability has been fixed.
