gopacket provides packet processing capabilities for Go. In version 1.6.0 and earlier, the sFlow ExtendedGatewayFlow decoder in layers/sflow.go reads an attacker-controlled 32-bit community count and AS path member count and sizes a slice allocation from those counts without bounding them against the bytes remaining in the datagram, so a 104-byte UDP datagram can drive an allocation of up to 16 GiB and cause an unauthenticated remote denial of service. This issue is fixed in version 1.6.1.
CVE-2026-54332
This high-severity CVE scores 7.5 under NVD CVSS v3. EPSS exploit probability: 0.5%, top 59% 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).
- High severity, but no confirmed exploitation yet
No vendor fix yet — apply a workaround or compensating control (WAF / firewall / segmentation) and watch for a patch.
