Description
CVE-2026-86201 is a denial of service vulnerability in PocketMine-MP before version 5.41.1. It arises from improper handling of LoginPacket processing where crafted packets containing large or deeply nested clientData JWT properties cause excessive logging without sanitization. This can lead to out-of-memory conditions and server crashes.
Impact
Successful exploitation causes denial of service by exhausting server memory resources, leading to server crashes. This disrupts availability of the PocketMine-MP server until it is restarted or remediated.
