CVE-2026-11586
Fixed in a distro release EPSS <1%CVSS 7.5
By default, curl automatically responds to WebSocket PING frames. Because curl lacks an upper bound on memory allocation for unacknowledged frames, a malicious server can exhaust all available memory by flooding curl with rapid, sequential PING messages.
