CVE-2026-59289
An attacker can forge a malicious query for a Connection field that can exhaust application memory or place significant, prolonged load on the underlying datastore, resulting in a Denial of Service.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.46%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
Description
