CVE-2026-44054 Details
Description
Netatalk 2.0.0 through 4.4.2 generates AFP session tokens derived from predictable process IDs, which allows a remote authenticated attacker to cause a denial of service by exploiting the reconnect mechanism.
A vulnerability in Netatalk versions 2.0.0 through 4.4.2 allows for predictable AFP session tokens, which are derived from the process ID. This predictability can be exploited by an authenticated user to terminate processes on the host, leading to a denial-of-service condition.
Users can upgrade to Netatalk 4.4.3 or later, which includes the necessary patch. Alternatively, the patch can be applied to a Netatalk 4.4.2 source tree. Netatalk administrators are advised to upgrade or apply the patch as soon as possible.
