Prior to versions 4.1.135.Final and 4.2.15.Final, the HAProxy PROXY protocol v2 codec in netty leaks native or heap memory on every connection when a client sends a syntactically valid header containing nested `PP2_TYPE_SSL` TLVs (type-length-value records) at depth two or greater. The leak occurs on the successful parse path — no exception is thrown, the message fires downstream, the decoder removes itself, and the application releases the `HAProxyMessage` normally. Yet the underlying cumulation buffer (a pooled, potentially direct `ByteBuf` allocated by the channel) remains permanently pinned. Versions 4.1.135.Final and 4.2.15.Final patch the issue.\n\n## Affected\n\n- `netty < 4.1.135`\n- `netty >= 4.2.0, < 4.2.15`\n\n## Remediation\n\nUpgrade past the affected range:\n\n- `netty 4.2.15`\n\n## Package advisory (CVE-2026-48059)\n\nAffected packages:\n\n- `io.netty:netty-codec-haproxy >= 4.2.0.Final, <= 4.2.14.Final`\n- `io.netty:netty-codec-haproxy <= 4.1.134.Final`\n\nPatched in:\n\n- `io.netty:netty-codec-haproxy 4.2.15.Final`\n- `io.netty:netty-codec-haproxy 4.1.135.Final`\n\nSource: https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-h2qv-fj59-j46j\n\n## Vendor advisories\n\n- **RHSA-2026:53644** · Red Hat · fixed in: Red Hat JBoss EAP 7.4 ELS for RHEL 7 Server · released 2026-08-11 · [advisory](https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:53644)\n- **RHSA-2026:48151** · Red Hat · fixed in: Cryostat 4 on RHEL 9 · released 2026-07-29 · [advisory](https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:48151)\n- **RHSA-2026:26586** · Red Hat · fixed in: Red Hat Build of Apache Camel 3.33 for Quarkus 3.33.2.SP1 · released 2026-06-17 · [advisory](https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:26586)\n- **RHSA-2026:41951** · Red Hat · fixed in: Red Hat Data Grid 8.6.2 · released 2026-07-20 · [advisory](https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:41951)\n- **RHSA-2026:53806** · Red Hat · fixed in: Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 7.4.25 · released 2026-08-11 · [advisory](https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:53806)\n- **RHSA-2026:50085** · Red Hat · fixed in: Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 8.1 · released 2026-08-04 · [advisory](https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:50085)\n- **RHSA-2026:36820** · Red Hat · fixed in: Red Hat OpenShift Dev Spaces 3.29 · released 2026-07-08 · [advisory](https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:36820)\n- **RHSA-2026:37390** · Red Hat · fixed in: Red Hat build of Apache Camel 4.18.1.P1 for Spring Boot 3.5.16 · released 2026-07-09 · [advisory](https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:37390)\n- **RHSA-2026:26018** · Red Hat · fixed in: Red Hat build of Quarkus 3.27.4.SP1 · released 2026-06-17 · [advisory](https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:26018)\n- **RHSA-2026:26017** · Red Hat · fixed in: Red Hat build of Quarkus 3.33.2.SP1 · released 2026-06-17 · [advisory](https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:26017)\n- **RHSA-2026:34608** · Red Hat · fixed in: Streams for Apache Kafka 2.9.4 · released 2026-07-02 · [advisory](https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:34608)\n- **Red Hat VEX** · Important · affected: OpenShift Serverless, Red Hat build of Apache Camel - HawtIO 4, Red Hat build of Apache Camel 4 for Quarkus 3, Red Hat build of Apicurio Registry 3, Red Hat build of Debezium 3, Red Hat Build of Keycloak, … · no fix planned: Red Hat build of Debezium 3, Red Hat Fuse 7, OpenShift Serverless, Red Hat build of Apache Camel - HawtIO 4, … · updated 2026-09-17 · [vex](https://security.access.redhat.com/data/csaf/v2/vex/2026/cve-2026-48059.json)\n- **RHSA-2026:65126** · Red Hat · fixed in: Red Hat OpenShift AI 2.25 · released 2026-09-08 · [advisory](https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:65126)\n- **RHSA-2026:66488** · Red Hat · fixed in: Red Hat AMQ Broker 7.14.1 · released 2026-09-10 · [advisory](https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:66488)\n- **RHSA-2026:53645** · Red Hat · fixed in: Red Hat JBoss EAP 7.4 ELS for RHEL 8 · released 2026-08-11 · [advisory](https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:53645)\n- **RHSA-2026:53646** · Red Hat · fixed in: Red Hat JBoss EAP 7.4 ELS for RHEL 9 · released 2026-08-11 · [advisory](https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:53646)","depth":"twilight","depthScore":41,"depthScoreParts":{"impact":41.3,"likelihood":0.2,"exploitation":0,"ransomware":0},"changes":[]}
