Wings: Maliciously or erroneously created parsed config files can cause wings process to OOM
Collected exploitation and prediction evidence
Risk source coverageCISA KEV is observed exploitation evidence. FIRST EPSS is a dated prediction of exploitation in the next 30 days. Missing scores are unknown. This collector requests predictions only for explicit CVE aliases in the public NuGet archive; Microsoft release views retain their existing prediction scope.
No collected risk observation for these identifiers. This does not establish absence of exploitation or a zero probability.
cve-program · CVE-2026-52857
PublishedWings is the server control plane for Pterodactyl, a free, open-source game server management panel. Prior to 1.13.0, unbounded json, yaml, and xml configuration-file parsers in parser.go can process an oversized non-file parser configuration file and exhaust Wings process memory. This issue is fixed in version 1.13.0.

Published### Summary Config file parsers, `json`, `yaml`, `xml` etc in parser.go have no file size limit/checks, allowing for a giant config file to potentially OOM the wings process. ### Impact All wings users who have an egg with a non-`file` parser configuration file setting.
