Description

Netty an asynchronous event-driven network application framework has a vulnerability in versions up to and including 4.1.118.Final. An unsafe reading of environment file could potentially cause a denial of service in Netty. When loaded on an Windows application Netty attempts to load a file that does not exist. If an attacker creates such a large file the Netty application crash. A similar issue was previously reported as CVE-2024-47535. This issue was fixed but the fix was incomplete in that null-bytes were not counted against the input limit. Commit d1fbda62d3a47835d3fb35db8bd42ecc205a5386 contains an updated fix.
