Suricata is a network Intrusion Detection System, Intrusion Prevention System and Network Security Monitoring engine. From 8.0.5 until 8.0.6, the FTP parser in src/app-layer-ftp.c can continue allocating transactions after app-layer.protocols.ftp.max-tx is reached while processing one large chunk of FTP command data. The oversized transaction list is repeatedly processed with quadratic complexity after the too_many_transactions event, allowing crafted FTP traffic to degrade packet processing, reduce monitoring visibility, or cause denial of service. This issue is fixed in version 8.0.6.
CVE-2026-63447
This high-severity CVE scores 7.5 under a secondary CVSS source (NVD's own analysis pending). EPSS exploit-prediction score not yet available (the EPSS model rescores nightly; freshly-published CVEs typically appear within 48 hours). 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.
