CVE-2026-66731

facil.io 0.7.5 through 0.7.6 contains a denial-of-service vulnerability in the HTTP/1.1 chunked transfer encoding parser that allows unauthenticated remote attackers to crash the server by sending a negative chunk size value. Attackers can send a single POST request with a Transfer-Encoding: chunked header containing a leading minus sign in the chunk size field, causing the parser in http1_parser.h to compute a large positive integer from the negated value, corrupting internal state and moving the read pointer into unmapped memory resulting in a fault.

Summary		(es) facil.io 0.7.5 a 0.7.6 contiene una vulnerabilidad de denegación de servicio en el analizador de codificación de transferencia fragmentada (chunked transfer encoding) de HTTP/1.1 que permite a atacantes remotos no autenticados bloquear el servidor al enviar un valor de tamaño de fragmento negativo. Los atacantes pueden enviar una única solicitud POST con una cabecera ’Transfer-Encoding: chunked’ que contenga un signo menos inicial en el campo de tamaño de fragmento, lo que hace que el analizador en http1_parser.h calcule un entero positivo grande a partir del valor negado, corrompiendo el estado interno y moviendo el puntero de lectura a memoria no mapeada, lo que resulta en un fallo.
