CVE-2026-86198

Malicious clients can send batches of these packets to repeatedly trigger pre-spawn progression, creating duplicate Player objects and amplifying memory consumption and network traffic.

LOW 2.3EPSS 0.28%

Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.28%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

Description

PocketMine-MP versions before 5.44.2 fail to properly validate multiple ResourcePackClientResponsePacket packets with STATUS_COMPLETED status during resource pack handling. Malicious clients can send batches of these packets to repeatedly trigger pre-spawn progression, creating duplicate Player objects and amplifying memory consumption and network traffic.
