CVE-2026-83600

MediumCVSS 6.5
Published: Translated: NVD NIST

Summary

In Netdata prior to 2.10.4, an authenticated child agent can send an oversized CHART SLOT value that str2ull_encoded passes to pluginsd_rrdset_cache_put_to_slot. The accepted slot drives reallocz to request an approximately 16 GiB chart-pointer array, and allocation failure invokes fatal and aborts the parent Netdata agent.

Risk Assessment

An authenticated child agent can repeatedly crash the parent Netdata agent, disabling centralized monitoring while stream access persists. This causes loss of infrastructure visibility and may mask other incidents.

Recommendation

Upgrade Netdata to version 2.10.4 or later (or nightly 2.10.0-782-nightly). Consider limiting trust in child agents and monitoring for unusual allocation sizes.

Original NVD description (English source)

Netdata is an open source observability tool. Prior to 2.10.4, an authenticated child agent can send an oversized CHART SLOT value that str2ull_encoded passes to pluginsd_rrdset_cache_put_to_slot in src/plugins.d/pluginsd_internals.h. The accepted slot drives reallocz to request an approximately 16 GiB chart-pointer array, and allocation failure invokes fatal and aborts the parent Netdata agent, repeatedly disabling centralized monitoring while stream access persists. This issue is fixed in version 2.10.4 and nightly build 2.10.0-782-nightly.
