CVE-2026-42328: go-ipld-prime: DAG-CBOR and DAG-JSON decoders unbounded recursion depth
- Severity: medium (CVSS 6.2 v3.1)
- Exploited in the wild: not listed in CISA KEV
- EPSS: 0.1% probability of exploitation in the next 30 days
- Public exploit or detection template: none known

- Weakness: CWE-674
Description
go-ipld-prime is an implementation of the InterPlanetary Linked Data (IPLD) spec interfaces, a batteries-included codec implementations of IPLD for CBOR and JSON, and tooling for basic operations on IPLD objects. Prior to 0.23.0, the DAG-CBOR and DAG-JSON decoders recurse on each nested map or list without a depth limit. A payload containing deeply nested collections causes the decoder to recurse once per level, growing the goroutine stack until the Go runtime terminates the process with a fatal stack overflow (distinct from a recoverable panic). This vulnerability is fixed in 0.23.0.
Affected products
- ipld go-ipld-prime: before 0.23.0
