A memory leak flaw was found in WildFly OpenSSL in versions prior to 1.1.3.Final, where it removes an HTTP session. It may allow the attacker to cause OOM leading to a denial of service. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to system availability.
CVE-2020-25644
This high-severity CVE scores 7.5 under NVD CVSS v3. EPSS exploit probability: 2.2%, top 20% of all CVEs by exploit prediction. GitHub Security Advisory data not yet ingested — confidence will rise once GHSA publishes (typical lag: hours to days for open-source ecosystem CVEs; never for infrastructure-only CVEs).
