    <title>GHSA-vrm6-8vpv-qv8q — Undici has Unbounded Memory Consumption in WebSocket permessage-deflate Decompression</title>
    <updated>2026-10-01T13:36:34.933103+00:00</updated>
    <content type="xhtml">
      <div xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"><p><strong>Affected:</strong> npm: undici</p>
<p>## Description</p>
<p>The undici WebSocket client is vulnerable to a denial-of-service attack via unbounded memory consumption during permessage-deflate decompression. When a WebSocket connection negotiates the permessage-deflate extension, the client decompresses incoming compressed frames without enforcing any limit on the decompressed data size. A malicious WebSocket server can send a small compressed frame (a "decompression bomb") that expands to an extremely large size in memory, causing the Node.js process to exhaust available memory and crash or become unresponsive.</p>
<p>The vulnerability exists in the `PerMessageDeflate.decompress()` method, which accumulates all decompressed chunks in memory and concatenates them into a single Buffer without checking whether the total size exceeds a safe threshold.</p>
<p>## Impact</p>
<p>- Remote denial of service against any Node.js application using undici's WebSocket client
- A single compressed WebSocket frame of ~6 MB can decompress to ~1 GB or more
- Memory exhaustion occurs in native/external memory, bypassing V8 heap limits
- No application-level mitigation is possible as decompression occurs before message delivery</p>
<p>### Patches</p>
<p>Users should upgrade to fixed versions.</p>
<p>### Workarounds</p>
<p>No workaround are possible.</p></div>
