CVE-2024-4027: Undertow Servlets Vulnerable to Remote DoS via OutOfMemoryError when Passed Large Parameter Names

January 30, 2026 (updated February 25, 2026)

A flaw was found in Undertow. Servlets using a method that calls HttpServletRequestImpl.getParameterNames() can cause an OutOfMemoryError when the client sends a request with large parameter names. This issue can be exploited by an unauthorized user to cause a remote denial-of-service (DoS) attack.
