CVE-2025-14969: Hibernate Reactive Vulnerable to DoS via Connection Pool Exhaustion

January 26, 2026 (updated January 27, 2026)

A flaw was found in Hibernate Reactive. When an HTTP endpoint is exposed to perform database operations, a remote client can prematurely close the HTTP connection. This action may lead to leaking connections from the database connection pool, potentially causing a Denial of Service (DoS) by exhausting available database connections.
