CVE-2026-44902

7.5 highEPSS 0.5%

High (7.5) in opentelemetry. EPSS 0.5% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days. Fixed in @opentelemetry/exporter-prometheus 0.217.0.

opentelemetry-js is the OpenTelemetry JavaScript Client. Prior to 0.217.0, a single malformed HTTP request crashes any Node.js process running the OpenTelemetry JS Prometheus exporter. The metrics endpoint (default 0.0.0.0:9464) has no error handling around URL parsing, so a request with an invalid URI causes an uncaught TypeError that terminates the process. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.217.0.
