Summary
libp2p is a JavaScript implementation of the libp2p networking stack. Prior to 11.0.26, @libp2p/floodsub accepts unauthenticated RPC frames on /floodsub/1.0.0 through PeerStreams.attachInboundStream without protobuf element limits, then processRpc and processRpcSubOpt synchronously process the subscriptions array without a per-frame cap. A single bounded-size frame can decode into millions of empty subscription entries that block the event loop, while hundreds of thousands of unique-topic SUBSCRIBE entries allocate PeerSet objects in this.topics that are not removed after peer removal or stop. Empty entries cause CPU exhaustion but do not grow this.topics; persistent memory growth requires unique topics. The subscription path bypasses message signature validation and the message-only processing queue, allowing a remote peer to cause sustained CPU denial of service, memory exhaustion, out-of-memory termination, and node unavailability. The issue is fixed in version 11.0.26.
Risk Assessment
A remote attacker could cause sustained denial of service, memory exhaustion, and unavailability of a libp2p node, potentially disrupting distributed application operations.
Recommendation
Update @libp2p/floodsub to version 11.0.26 or later, which includes fixes limiting frame processing and memory management.

Insufficient input validation in the PowerSYSTEM Center report designer allows an authenticated user to execute unauthorized SQL commands.
- CVE-2026-63017Critical
Incorrect authorization in PowerSYSTEM Center allows a low-privileged, authenticated user to access resources normally limited to administrators.
- CVE-2026-77596Critical
In Kubeflow Pipelines prior to 2.18.0, the multi-user HTTP endpoints for uploading pipelines and pipeline versions skip SubjectAccessReview when the target namespace is empty and REQUIRE_NAMESPACE_FOR_PIPELINES defaults to false. A low-privilege tenant can create shared pipelines or inject attacker-controlled versions into existing shared pipelines without the required write permission. If the API server is directly reachable without an authenticating proxy, an unauthenticated caller can exploit the same bypass.
- CVE-2026-119757Critical
BTCPay Server before 2.4.2, including 2.4.2 release candidates, contains an information disclosure vulnerability that allows unauthenticated remote attackers to retrieve .macaroon credential files for an LND node. The exposed macaroon can be used to gain full control of the LND node, including moving funds, resulting in theft of funds.
- CVE-2026-111494Critical
The MatchPoint Android app incorrectly validates TLS certificates due to a TrustManager that accepts any certificate and a permissive hostname validator. The app also allows unencrypted HTTP traffic, enabling an attacker who intercepts traffic to read and modify communications, including credentials and personal data.
- CVE-2026-111490Critical
An insecure direct object reference (IDOR) vulnerability in the MatchPoint API relies on the `actingasuser` HTTP header without verifying the requester's authorization for the specified user. Manipulation of sequential identifiers allows access to personal, banking, and financial data, private messages, and physical-access QR codes, as well as modification of third-party accounts, password changes, impersonation, and virtual balance transfers.
- CVE-2026-111489Critical
A static credential embedded in the MatchPoint mobile app has been reported to return the 'autorizado' token. The report states that this token grants unauthenticated access to API services.
- CVE-2026-85076Critical
Prior to 0.9.124, an authenticated non-admin with run_events, create_events, or edit_events privilege in Cronicle can supply undeclared keys in event params through api_create_event, api_update_event, or api_run_event. A key colliding with a security-sensitive environment variable can override the plugin execution context, potentially causing privilege escalation, arbitrary code execution, data access, or service disruption.
- CVE-2026-48705Critical
Prior to 1.6.1, MONAI's PydicomReader._get_affine() trusts non-finite values in DICOM PixelSpacing, ImagePositionPatient, and ImageOrientationPatient fields and composes them into an affine matrix without validation. An unauthenticated attacker who can upload a crafted DICOM to a default MONAILabel deployment can propagate NaN or infinity values, causing inference failures, persistent datastore poisoning, or geometrically corrupted results.
- CVE-2026-46350Critical
Prior to 0.52.0, dcmjs's DecimalString and IntegerString implementations in src/ValueRepresentation.js sanitize text with a permissive regular expression and pass the result to JavaScript's Number constructor without validating finiteness or DICOM rules. Scientific notation overflow in a DS or IS field can produce Infinity or NaN, and IntegerString accepts exponent notation and values outside the signed 32-bit IS range. Applications trusting these values can propagate invalid numbers into geometry, windowing, dose scaling, and volume reconstruction.
