CVE-2026-33218

NATS-Server is a High-Performance server for NATS.io, a cloud and edge native messaging system. Prior to versions 2.11.15 and 2.12.6, a client which can connect to the leafnode port can crash the nats-server with a certain malformed message pre-authentication. Versions 2.11.15 and 2.12.6 contain a fix. As a workaround, disable leafnode support if not needed or restrict network connections to the leafnode port, if plausible without compromising the service offered.

Summary
  • (es) NATS-Server es un servidor de alto rendimiento para NATS.io, un sistema de mensajería nativo de la nube y del borde. Antes de las versiones 2.11.15 y 2.12.6, un cliente que puede conectarse al puerto leafnode puede bloquear el nats-server con un mensaje malformado específico pre-autenticación. Las versiones 2.11.15 y 2.12.6 contienen una corrección. Como solución alternativa, deshabilite el soporte de leafnode si no es necesario o restrinja las conexiones de red al puerto leafnode, si es factible sin comprometer el servicio ofrecido.
