CVE-2026-129135 picoquic before 2026.11.05.3e2e3d3 Integer Overflow via TIME_STAMP Frame Decoder

6.3 medium

Medium (6.3) in private-octopus picoquic.

On this page
picoquic before 2026.11.05.3e2e3d3 contains an integer overflow vulnerability in picoquic_decode_time_stamp_frame() that allows remote QUIC peers to corrupt stored timestamps by sending oversized TIME_STAMP values. Attackers on connections negotiating the TIME_STAMP extension can send large values shifted by ack_delay_exponent to wrap the result, corrupting RTT and bandwidth estimation and degrading congestion control.
