CVE-2026-44250 Details
Description
Netty is a network application framework for development of protocol servers and clients. In netty-codec-redis prior to versions 4.1.135.Final and 4.2.15.Final, an attacker can cause DoS by sending a crafted Redis payload with deeply nested arrays. This forces the server to allocate a massive number of state objects and collections, leading to memory exhaustion and an OutOfMemoryError. Versions 4.1.135.Final and 4.2.15.Final patch the issue.
A denial-of-service vulnerability has been identified in the Netty codec for Redis, specifically in versions prior to 4.1.135.Final and 4.2.15.Final. The issue arises in the RedisArrayAggregator component, which aggregates Redis messages into array messages. The vulnerability allows an attacker to send crafted Redis payloads with deeply nested arrays, causing the server to allocate a large number of state objects and collections. This excessive memory usage can lead to memory exhaustion and an OutOfMemoryError.
Users can upgrade to Netty versions 4.1.135.Final or 4.2.15.Final to address this vulnerability.
