Last modified

CVE-2026-89146 is a high-severity vulnerability rated 7.5/10 on the CVSS scale. libp2p-rendezvous through 0.17.1 fails to validate registration TTL values in discovery responses, allowing attackers to trigger timer arithmetic overflow. A malicious rendezvous server can send a discovery response with an unbounded TTL value that causes the client node process to panic when computing the expiry timer.. EPSS estimates a 0.43% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
