An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-41173 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- OpenTelemetry.Resources.AWS (NuGet): affected all versions; fixed in 1.15.1\n- OpenTelemetry.Resources.AWS (NuGet): affected all versions; fixed in 1.15.1\n- OpenTelemetry.Sampler.AWS (NuGet): affected all versions; fixed in 0.1.0-alpha.8\n- OpenTelemetry.Sampler.AWS (NuGet): affected all versions; fixed in 0.1.0-alpha.8\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-41173/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-41173/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-41173","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-41173/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-41173","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-28xm-prxc-5866"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"OpenTelemetry AWS Sampler","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An attacker controlling the sampling endpoint can cause memory exhaustion and process termination by returning large HTTP responses.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"GitHub_M","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":5.9,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-770","name":"Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling"}],"description":"The AWS X-Ray Remote Sampler package provides a sampler which can get sampling configurations from AWS X-Ray. Prior to 0.1.0-alpha.8, OpenTelemetry.Sampler.AWS reads unbounded HTTP response bodies from a configured AWS X-Ray remote sampling endpoint into memory.  AWSXRaySamplerClient.DoRequestAsync called HttpClient.SendAsync followed by ReadAsStringAsync(), which materializes the entire HTTP response body into a single in-memory string with no size limit. The sampling endpoint is configurable via AWSXRayRemoteSamplerBuilder.SetEndpoint (default: http://localhost:2000). An attacker who controls the configured endpoint, or who can intercept traffic to it (MitM), can return an arbitrarily large response body. This causes unbounded heap allocation in the consuming process, leading to high transient memory pressure, garbage-collection stalls, or an OutOfMemoryException that terminates the process. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.1.0-alpha.8.","ecosystems":["NuGet"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Unbounded HTTP response body read in OpenTelemetry.Sampler.AWS","id":"CVE-2026-41173","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"NuGet","product":null,"products":[],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2026"},"n_packages":4,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Traefik Kubernetes CRD allows unauthorized cross-namespace middleware binding","id":"CVE-2026-41174"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"NuGet","fixed":["1.15.1"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"OpenTelemetry.Resources.AWS","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-28xm-prxc-5866"},{"ecosystem":"NuGet","fixed":["1.15.1"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"OpenTelemetry.Resources.AWS","purl":"pkg:nuget/OpenTelemetry.Resources.AWS","source":"GHSA-28xm-prxc-5866"},{"ecosystem":"NuGet","fixed":["0.1.0-alpha.8"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"OpenTelemetry.Sampler.AWS","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-28xm-prxc-5866"},{"ecosystem":"NuGet","fixed":["0.1.0-alpha.8"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"OpenTelemetry.Sampler.AWS","purl":"pkg:nuget/OpenTelemetry.Sampler.AWS","source":"GHSA-28xm-prxc-5866"}],"prev":{"headline":"Squidex vulnerable to Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) via URL-based asset upload (/api/apps/{app}/assets)","id":"CVE-2026-41172"},"products":["opentelemetry-dotnet-contrib"],"published":"2026-04-23","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"GitHub Advisory Database","prefix":"GHSA"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-04-23","vendors":["open-telemetry"]},"summary":"An attacker controlling the sampling endpoint can cause memory exhaustion and process termination by returning large HTTP responses.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-41173/"}
