A line that is not a chunk-size line, a size line without CRLF, or a size too large to fit an integer leaves the parser waiting forever, and every later add() grows the buffer.\n\nA remote attacker can exhaust memory in applications that pass chunked request bodies to HTTP::Body.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":null,"cwes":["CWE-770"],"references":["https://github.com/libwww-perl/HTTP-Body/commit/7c6dc1ecd49e30ac405a3959c606ba389718f556.patch","https://metacpan.org/release/GETTY/HTTP-Body-1.24_01/changes"],"products":[],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-28T18:33:43.673322083+00:00"},"epss":null,"kev":null,"osv":[],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
