- CVE-2026-48779HIGH 7.5
The ws library, a widely-used WebSocket implementation for Node.js, contains a denial-of-service vulnerability that allows a remote attacker to crash an application by sending a carefully crafted stream of tiny data fragments. Despite the small individual packets, the server allocates internal memory structures for each fragment that far exceed the advertised message-size limits, eventually exhausting available memory and terminating the process. No authentication is required, and the attack traffic is modest, making this a practical threat for exposed WebSocket services.
