CVE-2026-58064

Remote command injection vulnerability in heap profiler builtin service in Apache bRPC (all versions < 1.15.0) on all platforms allows attacker to inject remote command. Root Cause: The bRPC heap profiler built-in service (/pprof/heap) does not validate the user-provided extra_options parameter and executes it as a command-line argument. Attackers can execute remote commands using the extra_options parameter. Affected scenarios: Use the built-in bRPC heap profiler service to perform jemalloc memory profiling. How to Fix: we provide two methods, you can choose one of them: 1. Upgrade bRPC to version 1.15.0. 2. Apply this patch ( https://github.com/apache/brpc/pull/3101 ) manually.

The MySQL client response parser in Apache bRPC dereferences a null pointer when the server peer sends a zero-payload-length response packet. A packet with declared zero payload length passes the frame-length check, after which the parser reads the response type byte via an unbounded 5-byte fetch that returns nullptr, causing type = p[4] to dereference it and crash the client process.

A vulnerability in the Discovery naming-service reply parser in Apache bRPC (versions < 1.18.0) calls RapidJSON object-only accessors (FindMember) on JSON values without first validating that they are objects. A malformed Discovery response whose data/service members or instances list contain non-object entries triggers an out-of-bounds read and potentially crashes the bRPC client.

On a brpc::Server that sets both ServerOptions.auth and ServerOptions.internal_port, the HTTP built-in service exemption on internal_port can be abused to bypass authentication entirely. Verification runs only for the first message of a connection and the result latches the connection, so a request such as GET /status to internal_port authenticates the whole connection.

Apache bRPC versions before 1.18.0 expose builtin /flags and /pprof services that allow a remote attacker to change dump paths (bvar_dump_file, bvar_dump_tabs, mbvar_dump_file) and create directories or overwrite files with the server process privileges. Additionally, the ?seconds= parameter in /pprof is not clamped, enabling an attacker to hold the process-wide CPU profiler for an arbitrarily long time.

HTTP request/response smuggling vulnerability in Apache bRPC versions < 1.18.0 stems from inconsistent HTTP/1.1 header parsing in its bundled parser. bRPC accepts malformed header forms (space before colon, spaces in Content-Length values, obs-fold, chunked trailers merged as headers, Transfer-Encoding lists with whitespace), allowing attackers to smuggle requests or headers when bRPC is deployed behind a proxy or load balancer.

Improper authorization in Apache bRPC (versions < 1.18.0) allows remote attackers to access builtin services through the public port. Protobuf-based protocol dispatch paths computed but did not enforce the security_mode flag, allowing invocation of services such as brpc.vars or hotspots.

A vulnerability in Apache bRPC (versions < 1.18.0) stems from an interpretation conflict in HTTP path handling between bRPC and a front proxy. The FindMethodPropertyByURI() function skips empty path segments (consecutive slashes), so paths like //flags are dispatched as /flags, even though RFC 3986 treats them as distinct. Additionally, HTTP/2 does not validate the :path pseudo-header, allowing bypass of proxy ACL rules and access to internal services.

A use-after-free exists in the RTMP protocol implementation in Apache bRPC (version < 1.18.0). A malicious RTMP peer can crash the process or potentially corrupt memory via a crafted Abort message. The root cause is that the receive path deletes the target RtmpChunkStream object while the send path concurrently dereferences it without synchronization.

A NULL pointer dereference in the RTMP protocol implementation in Apache bRPC (versions < 1.18.0) occurs when the server rejects a createStream request by returning a null stream and then fails to write the error response, causing a crash. A remote attacker can trigger a denial of service by sending a crafted createStream command and closing the connection before the rejection response is written.
