When receiving a CONNECT packet with a zero-length Client ID while CleanSession is set to 0, the broker correctly replies with a CONNACK return code 0x02 (Identifier Rejected) but fails to explicitly close the TCP connection. Since the surrounding connection teardown logic is not guaranteed to execute, each such invalid CONNECT attempt leaves the underlying socket open. Repeated attempts cause server-side resource exhaustion due to accumulating file descriptors and memory usage, potentially resulting in denial of service."}], "lastModified": "2026-05-18T20:27:23.023", "sourceIdentifier": "cve@mitre.org"}
