official gRPC-Go GHSA-vp52-pcj8-j9qc v1.83.1 advisory
💡 Result:
The official security advisory GHSA-vp52-pcj8-j9qc addresses a Heap Memory Exhaustion (OOM) vulnerability in gRPC-Go [1][2]. Vulnerability Details: Prior to version 1.83.1, gRPC-Go (google.golang.org/grpc) was vulnerable to memory exhaustion caused by HTTP/2 DATA frame fragmentation [1][3][2]. An unauthenticated remote attacker could exploit this by sending a stream fragmented into millions of tiny (e.g., 1-byte) HTTP/2 DATA frames [1][2]. Because the library historically stored each fragmented frame as a separate recvMsg structure in the receive buffer, these fragmented frames could consume disproportionate heap memory even while staying within configured flow-control window limits [3][2]. By multiplexing multiple concurrent streams, an attacker could force a runtime panic or an out-of-memory (OOM) condition, resulting in a denial-of-service (DoS) [1][3][2]. Resolution: The vulnerability is fixed in gRPC-Go version 1.83.1 [1][4]. The patch implements receive-buffer compaction, which automatically coalesces consecutive small data buffers into larger ones from a shared pool to minimize per-frame memory overhead [1][2]. Workaround: Receive-buffer compaction is enabled by default in the patched version [1][2]. If this feature causes unforeseen issues, it can be temporarily disabled using the environment variable: GRPC_GO_EXPERIMENTAL_ENABLE_RECEIVE_BUFFER_COMPACTION=false [1][2] Note that this environment variable is intended as a temporary escape hatch and is planned for removal in a future release [1][2]. This issue is also tracked as CVE-2026-84304 [3][5].

site:github.com/grpc/grpc-go/security/advisories/GHSA-vp52-pcj8-j9qc affected gRPC client server receive fragmented DATA frames
💡 Result:
In the context of gRPC, specifically within the gRPC-Go implementation, fragmented HTTP/2 DATA frames can be leveraged by an attacker to trigger a heap memory exhaustion (Out of Memory) vulnerability [1]. When a client or server purposefully sends payloads fragmented into millions of extremely small HTTP/2 DATA frames (e.g., 1-byte frames), the overhead required for the gRPC runtime to track each individual fragment and manage internal queue allocations can cause massive heap memory inflation [1]. This occurs even if the total data transferred remains within the defined connection and stream flow-control limits [1]. By multiplexing multiple concurrent streams using this fragmentation technique, an attacker can exhaust the system's memory, leading to a remote Denial of Service (DoS) [1]. This issue affects versions of google.golang.org/grpc up to and including 1.83.0 [1]. It was addressed in version 1.83.1, which introduced receive buffer compaction [1]. This mechanism automatically coalesces consecutive small data buffers into larger buffers sourced from a shared pool when the memory overhead becomes excessive relative to the actual payload size [1]. While this behavior is enabled by default, it can be temporarily disabled using the environment variable GRPC_GO_EXPERIMENTAL_ENABLE_RECEIVE_BUFFER_COMPACTION=false, though this escape hatch is intended to be removed in future versions [1].
Citations:
Upgrade google.golang.org/grpc to v1.83.1 or later.
v1.82.1 is affected by GHSA-vp52-pcj8-j9qc. The operator uses gRPC through k8s.io/apiserver/pkg/server/egressselector for client connections. If the GRPC egress path is enabled, a malicious peer can send fragmented HTTP/2 DATA frames and cause excessive memory use. Regenerate dependency checks after the upgrade.

Resource name collisions could cause the operator to overwrite or delete another workload, steady reconciliation performed unnecessary writes, and the storage CAS checker could report false failures on a correct store. This PR fixes those defects and records a production audit against celld v0.4.0.

Four additional advisories remain without detected affected call paths (two package-level and two module-level); versions and advisory links are in the audit.Compatibility: existing unowned children or children belonging to a prior WorkerApp UID now produce reconciliation errors. Resolve those collisions explicitly before expecting the fleet to reconcile.
The audit identifies remaining feature work around durability/topology, KEDA rollout coordination, complete metrics and state validation, tenant isolation, observed app versions, deploy tracking, integration cleanup, API validation, and Helm/CI behavior. This PR does not claim production durability or validate a real application fleet against external storage, mesh, or KEDA.
