Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-49017 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- swift (PyPI): affected from 2.36.0 up to 2.36.1; no fix listed\n- swift (PyPI): affected from 2.36.0 up to 2.36.1; no fix listed\n- swift (PyPI): affected from 2.36.0 up to 2.36.1; no fix listed\n- swift (PyPI): affected from 2.37.0 up to 2.37.1; no fix listed\n- swift (PyPI): affected from 2.37.0 up to 2.37.1; no fix listed\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-2026-49017/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-49017/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-49017","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-49017/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-49017","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2026-49017","GHSA-g7jq-j257-rww2","PYSEC-2026-3080","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-49017","USN-8821-1"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cloud_service","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"OpenStack Swift","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"An authenticated attacker can cause a denial of service in OpenStack Swift by sending truncated aws-chunked PUT requests, exhausting proxy-server workers.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"swift","vendor":"openstack"}],"cvss":{"score":7.1,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:L","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-835","name":"Loop with Unreachable Exit Condition"}],"description":"In OpenStack Swift before 2.36.2 and 2.37.2, s3api middleware enters an infinite loop when processing a truncated aws-chunked PUT request body.
