CVE-2026-83745: Apache Thrift, Apache Thrift: WebSocket frame decoders allocate the payload buffer from the declared length, not the bytes received (Node.js, D)
Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 34/100)
- The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.34% (FIRST EPSS).
- Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. No account or password is required. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
- According to CISA the attack is automatable: targets can be found by mass scanning.
- Fixed version: Apache Software Foundation Apache Thrift 0.25.0; azl3 thrift 0.24.0-1 on Azure Linux 3.0 0.25.0-1.
- Mentioned 1 time in Turkish national cyber security advisories (siberguvenlik.gov.tr).
Low priority for now. Upgrade to Apache Software Foundation Apache Thrift 0.25.0; azl3 thrift 0.24.0-1 on Azure Linux 3.0 0.25.0-1 or later.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS
Memory allocation with excessive size value, Improper handling of length parameter inconsistency vulnerability in Apache Thrift nodejs and D lang bindings. Both bindings' WebSocket server transports read the payload length out of the frame header and allocate that many bytes immediately, without checking that the bytes have arrived. A single ~14-byte frame therefore commits as much memory as it cares to declare -- measured at 513 MiB against the Node.js server and 2 GiB against the D transport -- and in the Node.js case the connection is left open afterwards, so the frame can simply be sent again. This issue affects Apache Thrift before 0.25.0. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 0.25.0, which fixes the issue.
