CVE-2026-59295

MEDIUMCVSS 5.9/10

Last modified

CVE-2026-59295 is a medium-severity vulnerability rated 5.9/10 on the CVSS scale. Micrometer-instrumented Apache HttpAsyncClient (4.x or 5.x) usage via MicrometerHttpClientInterceptor can leak memory unboundedly when asynchronous requests fail before receiving a response (e.g. connection resets or timeouts).

Description

Micrometer-instrumented Apache HttpAsyncClient (4.x or 5.x) usage via MicrometerHttpClientInterceptor can leak memory unboundedly when asynchronous requests fail before receiving a response (e.g. connection resets or timeouts). Tracking state for these requests remains in memory indefinitely, and sustained failures lead to heap exhaustion and OutOfMemoryError crashes.
