CVE-2022-51017
PocketMine-MP versions before 3.26.5 and 4.0.5 fail to validate the length of skin data fields submitted by players, allowing uncapped values to exceed the 32767 byte TAG_String limit.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.47%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
Description
PocketMine-MP versions before 3.26.5 and 4.0.5 fail to validate the length of skin data fields submitted by players, allowing uncapped values to exceed the 32767 byte TAG_String limit. Attackers can submit oversized skin data fields like skinID or geometryName to trigger exceptions during NBT data serialization, causing server crashes.
