An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2026-45352 exists.\n\nAffected product: yhirose cpp-httplib. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\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-2026-45352/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-45352/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-45352","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-45352/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-45352","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2026-45352","GHSA-h6wq-j5mv-f3q8","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-45352"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"C++ HTTP library","requires_auth":"none","summary":"A remote attacker can crash the server or exhaust memory by sending a negative chunk size in HTTP chunked transfer encoding.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"GitHub_M","cpe":[{"product":"cpp-httplib","vendor":"yhirose"}],"cvss":{"score":5.3,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-770","name":"Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling"},{"id":"CWE-20","name":"Improper Input Validation"},{"id":"CWE-1285","name":"Improper Validation of Specified Index, Position, or Offset in Input"}],"description":"cpp-httplib is a C++11 single-file header-only cross platform HTTP/HTTPS library. Prior to 0.43.4, negative chunk-size in chunked Transfer-Encoding causes unbounded memory allocation and process crash. The ChunkedDecoder::read_payload function in cpp-httplib (httplib.h) parses the chunk-size field of HTTP chunked transfer encoding using std::strtoul(). Per the C standard (§7.22.1.4), strtoul silently accepts a leading minus sign, performing unsigned wrap-around: strtoul(\"-2\", …, 16) returns ULONG_MAX − 1 (0xFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFE). The library's only guard (line 12833) rejects ULONG_MAX (the result of \"-1\"), but any other negative value such as \"-2\" passes validation. The resulting near-maximum value is stored in chunk_remaining and controls how many bytes the server's read loop consumes from the network. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.43.4.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"cpp-httplib DoS: Negative chunk-size in chunked Transfer-Encoding","id":"CVE-2026-45352","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"electerm: Local code through electerm's single-instance socket","id":"CVE-2026-45353"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Open WebUI: Exposure of System Prompt to Regular User [Non-Admin]","id":"CVE-2026-45351"},"products":["cpp-httplib"],"published":"2026-05-29","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"cpp-httplib Untrusted HTTP Header Handling: Internal Header Shadowing (REMOTE*/LOCAL*)","id":"CVE-2025-66570","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-12-05"},{"cvss_score":9.9,"headline":"cpp-httplib: HTTP header value percent-decoding in server-side `parse_header` enables CRLF injection","id":"CVE-2026-45372","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-05-29"},{"cvss_score":8.7,"headline":"Null dereference in cpp-httplib","id":"CVE-2026-46527","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-05-29"},{"cvss_score":8.7,"headline":"cpp-httplib has a Silent TLS Certificate Verification Bypass on HTTPS Redirect via Proxy","id":"CVE-2026-32627","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-03-13"},{"cvss_score":8.7,"headline":"cpp-httplib vulnerable to a denial of service (DOS) using a zip bomb","id":"CVE-2026-22776","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-01-12"},{"cvss_score":7.7,"headline":"cpp-httplib has CRLF injection in http headers","id":"CVE-2026-21428","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-01-01"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"cpp-httplib Affected by Remote Process Crash via Malformed Content-Length Response Header","id":"CVE-2026-31870","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-03-11"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"yes","exploitation":"poc","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-06-02","vendors":["yhirose"]},"summary":"A remote attacker can crash the server or exhaust memory by sending a negative chunk size in HTTP chunked transfer encoding.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-45352/"}
