Unauthenticated service interruption via out-of-bounds read
Published Jan 29, 2026 · Updated Jan 29, 2026
Out-of-bounds read in Monkey HTTP Server through commit f37e984 allows remote attackers to interrupt service with a crafted HTTP request. The mk_ptr_to_buf function in mk_core/mk_memory.c performs an out-of-bounds read while handling data derived from the crafted request. The published material does not identify the malformed HTTP field or exact failed bounds check; no authentication or user interaction is required, and the bounded impact is service interruption.
