Routinator exits when requesting the output repeatedly

Published Oct 26, 2026 · Updated Oct 26, 2026 · Assigned by NLnet Labs

Description

Routinator runs out of memory when the JSON output is requested many times concurrently. This condition can be triggered maliciously by an attacker by opening a large number of connections to the HTTP server. Additionally Routinator runs into a stack overflow and exits when a payload item with too much metadata is discarded at once.

This only affects users that make their HTTP or RTR server available to untrusted networks.
