CVE-2026-11586
Publication date 24 June 2026
Last updated 26 June 2026
Ubuntu priority
Description
By default, curl automatically responds to WebSocket PING frames. Because curl lacks an upper bound on memory allocation for unacknowledged frames, a malicious server can exhaust all available memory by flooding curl with rapid, sequential PING messages.
Why is this CVE low priority?
Upstream defined this as low severity
